On Google Talk via Trillian NOW
Update: Official Google Talk Page Now Online
Alrighty! Looks like Eoban was right and Google has unofficially launched Google Talk.
To set it up on Trillian Pro get the Jabber Plugin and follow the wonderful instructions found on this page by user Simplex:
OK, here’s how *I* got it working.
Trillian doesn’t like renaming Jabber accounts, so I had to create it with the following information:
username: %username%@gmail.com
password %gmail-password%Then I had to go into the settings and change the server to talk.google.com — after that, everything worked.
More setup instructions (for other clients) available here.
Update: Not getting the best results via the Trillian Plugin, some error messages:
