After gazing for hours with drool dripping from your lower lip, please come back and leave a comment supporting me.

Gtalkr : Just another desktop app?

Saturday, March 4th, 2006 at 2:40 pm

Excerpt taken from Gtalkr F.A.Q:

What is Gtalkr?

Gtalkr allows you to go anywhere, to any computer, and have access to your Google Talk account. No more hassling with upgrades. With Gtalkr you get the features in your browser as soon as they’re available.

After playing a little with it, I have to say, Gtalkr is far from - just - that.

It combines Google Talk with Flickr and YouTube. Add in some newsfeeds support, some interesting and useful extensions, popular site feeds like digg and techcrunch, sprinkle with some nifty interface, and you’ve got yourself a nice online desktop application.

I’m not saying it’s a panacea , I still love Netvibes. But it’s an interesting thing to do when greek Halloween is not exactly your score and your WoW server has gone down for updates.

Check it out.
