Google Talk

I would like to suggest that a section for Google Talk ids be added to the instant messaging list... it's the only chat program I use, and would like to be able to find other who use it.

But then again... I suppose revealing your Google Talk id would also be giving away your email to potential spam bots... do you think that would be a problem?

tec... it's not really a matter of chat. It serves the same function that having your Yahoo or Aim ID does on your profile.

I know I don't use either of those services but do use Google.

That said, I wouldn't put my email address up either.

I dunno... sometimes it's just nice to chat about nothing with people you know from the forums...

There are already spaces for Yahoo, MSN, ICQ, and AIM... I don't see why we can't have another for Google Talk if people want to use it...

That's exactly why I like it too... it's design philosophy is very utilitarian... plus, it might be nice to voice chat with some of the TFPers from time to time...

I'd really like to see a Google Talk thingie added on the profiles. I use Google Talk a lot too and wouldn't mind adding a few TFPers to my very short list.

Yeah, Google Talk is pretty sweet. So far I only have one person added to my list though.

It's not that simple of a mod to make to add another field for yet another IM. There's plenty of other mods that Halx should or needs to implement before adding something that doesn't benefit a majority of the community members. I'm sure that some people would want their Skype info to be available too. You have plenty of space to put that information into Biography section if you truly need to put it out there.

If you want to be part of the community, then jump into IRC we're all there together as a community.

Now before you say, "But I can't log onto IRC from work..." Well neither can I but I have figured out a way to do it for the times I need to... and those that I've gotten to know over time do have ways of getting ahold of me and vice versa.

If you make yourself available to the community the community makes itself available to you.
