oxygenn3 Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 if you translate the numbers in the bottom into the alphabet (a=1, b=2, etc.) it says wumpus.game Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/363145-google-talks-very-first-secrets/page/5/#findComment-586428121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigitalSnow Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 My default browser is Maxthon, you think that makes a difference? 586428106[/snapback] No It shouldn't just try going to the settings and reset it as default.

itsnotabigtruck Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I'm currently trying to figure out how to make Google Talk connect to jabber.org (I hate Gaim). I also did the button code thing and got the same results (40000 to 40100).

itsnotabigtruck Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) No luck so far with getting GT to connect to jabber.org. I set px in the registry to jabber.org and used the HOSTS file to redirect talk.google.com to jabber.org (Ethereal showed GT was still connecting to talk.google.com). Edit: I just hex-edited Google Talk to use jabber.org without the hosts file. It seems to have the same problems now as with the hosts file (it sends and recieves a total of 9 unknown [to Ethereal] frames of TCP after recieving a starttls from the Jabber server).

Peter McGrath Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 I don't understand what all the excitement is all about. Google talk is lame, does not have many features you can find in other IM, like file transfer, video chat, icons and more.They still have a lot of work to do on it :| 586426469[/snapback] yes it looks SOOOO plain too :( Unfortunately while that format works well for a search engine I like my IM to look "pretty" and be customizable...

FlibbyFlobby Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 yes it looks SOOOO plain too :(Unfortunately while that format works well for a search engine I like my IM to look "pretty" and be customizable... 586429358[/snapback] I like it, its nice and clutter free. MSN (which is my usual IM) is cluttered, full of useless junk (even with APatch) I dont use, the default skin is fugly and its generally an average IM. WIth Gtalk if they add: - File Transfers - Multiple people in one conversation - Emoticons - Webcam Support then it will be one awesome IM in my opinion.
