“Talk of the town.” was penned precisely on 24 August, 2005 11:11 PM, which happened to be a Wednesday. but you know what? dullneon.com's random notes has now moved to a new location.
Google Talk is here. Running off Jabber, Google’s combined instant messaging/net phone system should, in theory, be able to connect to every other IM network out there like MSN Messenger, ICQ, AIM and Yahoo! Messenger. But it is still in its infancy and this possibly killer feature to “connect everyone to everyone” might just take a while to appear. The software currently is Windows only but there are already instructions on how you can connect to Google Talk on your Mac by using the built-in iChat or the excellent AdiumX.
this was published on 24 August in the year 2005, which was a Wednesday. anyway, all this is old and archived. everything has been now been moved, so head on down to the revamped almost daily random notes (unless of course you like this old stuff too much to part with it).
