    The Google family of products expands, the nice thing about this one is that it incorporates googlt talk and gmail into it, among other services. Also it supports user developed plug-ins for plenty of fun ... even system monitoring

    is it just me or does Google seem like they are overdoing it? I love google, but it seems like there are too many new products at the same time.

    Although, I am downloading this and giving it a try :p
