on tuesday november 11 gmail really stepped up their game and pushed gmail to the next level. now no one has an excuse to stay with yahoo, msn (hotmail), or aol. just the way google makes it so simple and easy to use unlike yahoo and other video chat softwares which are pretty complicated and take a lot of memory and effort to do things like store contacts and also other softwares open automatically when you log on which greatly slows down your computer when you log on. i dont have a webcam (yet) so i cant actually do it but ive downloaded it (and yes to use gmail video chat you have to download it)  and how you do it is when you mouse over someone’s name in the chat contacts list and on the drop down menu it says: “Start Video Chat” then it gmail sends them an invite and they hit accept and thats it! simple as that. do to its simplicity and ease of use the official Michel’s Blog rating is a 4.5/5 and i recommend all of you to get it, within the next week or so gmail texting should be up too and im guess within 3 weeks there will be group video chat for gmail. google is starting to acquire a monopoly on more things then just search engines now and as long as they keep coming out with new and cool stuff i welcome it, other companies like microsoft and yahoo need to learn from google and the only way they will survive in this business is to do what google is doing which is continuously improving and updating their products. to read more click here.
