Jabber-based, Google-sponsored Instant Messaging. Bloody hell, don’t I feel silly now for never getting my kickass Jabber client application running. Oh, and “hah” to all of you thought I was crazy when talking about the benefits of Jabber ;)
Could it be the first Jabber client with voice support? Wonder how Skype feels about Google stepping in on their turf.
Update: It seems they feel the need to say Skype opens IM and Presence to the world. Introducing SkypeWeb and SkypeNet.
