Connecting Google Talk to AIM, MSN, and/or Yahoo
January 23, 2006 | 8 Comments
I’ve been using Google Talk lately as my IM client, but a lot of my annoying friends and family still use the advertisement heavy and intrusive AIM client. I’d still like to be able to talk with them, but I want to only use one IM client.
Someone figured out a sweet way to accomplish this using the Jabber protocol as an intermediary. Check out the instruction here. Basically you make the bridge using PSI initially, then you can go back to Google Talk. It is slightly cumbersome, but the results rule.
