Disappointed about Google Talk
First of all, Google is great - I really admire them!
Today, they officially announced Google Talk. They were rumours about something like that for month and it sounded very plausible to do. Yesterday, the rumours became more and more solid and here it is ...
But looking at the features I was completely disappointed: This is all standard stuff no sign of a smart Google twist to it at all and here are some great ideas to do that:
Integrate other of your services
Many features are just missing
By the way, is not it one of Google's believes
2. It's best to do one thing really, really well.
and the another
10. Great just isn't good enough.
Well, I guess then there is still some hope ...

Integrate other of your services
- Show location of chat partners in Google Maps and Google Earth
- What about Hello and Picasa? - Pictures are always something to share and talk about.
- Desktop Search would be great! - How often do I want to send something and cannot find it ...
Many features are just missing
- Call real telefons
- VoiceMail
- Ability to interoperate with other messenger plattforms - Hopefully comming soon!

Come on, Google is the greatest faschistfirm of the last decade. I only use Skype!
Cool, I did not know that Skype does web search ... okay, fun aside. And Skype is developed by a (former) Spyware programmer.
Not everything is bad, evil, and fachistic!
But you are right, right now Skype is just the better VoIP- and Chat-programm.
Maybe you should go work at Google...give them some pointers.
