Publisher's Description
Google Hangouts (formerly Google Talk) will bring your conversations to life with photos, emoji, and even group video calls for free. Send photos or emoji, see when people are engaged in the Hangout and message friends anytime, even if they're not connected right now. Turn any Hangout into a live video call with up to 10 friends or simply search for a contact to start a voice call from your computer. Hangouts works on computers, Android and Apple devices, so you can connect with everyone, and no one gets left out.

Google Talk was so-so, while Google Hangouts is disgusting just like all other Google products nowadays. One can connect to Google Talk using Miranda IM/Pidgin since both programs support it (in fact Gmail is using Jabber protocol).

Nice app, still missing the AIM integration that gmail's talk client has but that can be cured with PSI and a jabber transport. It would also be nice to see video support without external applications. I dont really know how well standalone IM clients are going to do nowadays though when its easy and convenient to do the same thing at gmail.com and a few other sites.

I used to use Windows Live Messenger, but I didn't like the advertisements in the interface and nor did I like the textual advertising in the program.
That's why I downloaded Google Talk and I can describe it in a few words : Easy to use, nice interface, not loaded with features that you don't use, sorry Windows Live Messenger fans, and it's indeed lightweighted and doesn't take a long time to load.
Although, I would have liked it to have video ( webcam ) abilities as well. I haven't found a solution for that yet.
Google Talk is a great program to use and easy to use !
Also ExtendedTalk, an add-on for Google Talk, similar to MSN Plus! Live, adds a lot of features to the program.

My independent reviews about G-talk is, its simply the best. Most easy to use, integrated with gmail, a light application, and a crystal clear voice communication, which is seriously lacking in Yahoo IM. Both MSN & Yahoo IM are very heavy to use. Due to this most of us have made it as a main IM application. Me and my brother cannot imagine what a life can be without Gtalk (he lives in US and I m in India..)

It downloaded the correct version for me.
Who uses Orkut other than Brazilians?

The download provided is for 1.0.0.100 (from here and directly on the google talk page). Not sure if it auto updates to the current build or what?
I like Google Talk, its simplicity and interface. It's not astounding but it meets my needs well.

While it may be a great application, you still cannot change the fact that nobody uses it. Everyone either uses MSN, YIM, or AIM. People are not going to just up and switch to Google Talk.
Now that YIM and MSN can talk to each other that leaves AIM and Google Talk in the dark.
I have too many users on my MSN list to just up and switch....and have since added some of my Yahoo! friends to my list.
And no.....I'm not going to use GAIM or Trillian or Miranda or something else like that because they also suck and feel and look like 10 year old technology.
One last thing.....who uss Orkut? With YouTube and MySpace, why use Orkut?
