I've tried GTalk and Jabber/XMPP, AIM and Yahoo! IM. None work for me. Fail.

I'm not having a problem using it with GTalk in either Firefox or Explorer.

whiskeykitten - yeah, quite disappointing. not having a feature is bad, but one that doesn't work consistently is _worse_

Suzette, uh - how about using a real XMPP client?

You seem to be cursed with too much knowledge. Applciations like this are meant to work for the work for the

technically weak who walk the earth.

also, for the bad typers.

maybe so. I think it's more like "applications like this are deveoped by the technically weak who walk the earth"
