My mobile will call or txt ANY other mobile. I can use my email address to send to ANY other email address. I should be able to chat with ANY other IM client from my own without having to worry about protocols. Perhaps this is a bit too far removed from their main mission to "organize the world's information" but if Google can crack the IM thing then I think they will gain a lot of new fans and probably make next years "gphones" even more attractive.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18157064.post-19749233690329425602007-11-07T22:51:00.000-08:002007-11-07T22:51:00.000-08:00I noticed that feature updates started to take a n...I noticed that feature updates started to take a nose dive once Eric Schmidt stated that he wanted "less new programs and more features" about a year ago.
