What is Google Talk? Whatever it is, it seems like Google will be announcing Google Talk tomorrow according to Neowin. There is a lot of speculation on what it could be, from it being a Skype competitor, to VOIP/IM meta client, or free WiFi. One thing that seems to be clear is that Google Talk will be using the open source Jabber client which means that any IM client would be able to use the service.
In my opinion, Google would not just come up with a regular IM to compete with MSFT, Yahoo!, and AOL. My observation is that Google tends to go one step ahead of the competition if it is coming from behind. Well, I may be wrong as well because the service will most probably introduced as beta and may have limited features at first. I guess we will see that tomorrow. It is always exciting to see what Google has in store.
