G-Talk does need a bit of spicing up. This would help. - mayankgupta, on 12/24/2007, -0/+3pretty useful, as digitalvik suggests that gtalk certainly needs lot of update

- Repiv, on 12/25/2007, -6/+4People use Google Talk?
- Bonekhan, on 12/25/2007, -2/+1Just... delete your annoying friends. Why put up with them, honestly?
- bwjacket, on 12/25/2007, -3/+1I don't think anyone actually using google talk can afford to miss out on any human contact.
- arcooke, on 12/25/2007, -0/+2Google needs to add a feature to clear your chats.. currently the only way to do this is to exit and reopen it, which isn't a huge pain or anything but it's kind of annoying. I don't know about you guys but sometimes my chats get so long, it sometimes takes like 30 seconds or more to bring a chat window up from the taskbar.
