GMAIL has chat history feature

2006-02-07 10:03:30

I noticed today that gmail has a "chat history" feature. Basically, you can (if you want) save all your google talk chats automatically, so you can search them later. I think that's cool, but the bummer is that I don't chat with anybody on google chat. I use AIM, because everybody I know uses AIM: about 150 people on my buddy list.

The number of people on my google talk buddy list: 2. And they are also on AIM, so I never use google talk with them.

Google should pony up and buy AOL for its only valuable asset: AIM.
