Looks pretty cool. I'm actually very anti-social at my computer though. I don't run AIM, removed MSN Messenger from my XP CD entirely (), and have never had the need for IRC. I like the concept of boards MUCH more. Boards don't get annoyed if you don't reply within 30seconds. AIM chatters usually do. Plus, I'm pretty much ALWAYS being sarcastic, so chit-chat through text is hard for me.

 

But I have liked so much of what google's doing lately that I think it'll do really well. MyGoogle is just plain awesome, the search engine is pretty much a default these days, and well look at gmail. Gmail was the smartest "launch" ever. Tell people they can't something and they'll want it that much more. I nearly shat a brick when my nerd buddy called and told me he finally had invites to give me.

 

The calling stuff looks like it could be very handy, if it works like it appears to. I'll be following this thing's progress for sure, even though I'm far too antisocial to actually USE it
