multilingual googletalk

[Todd Kelsey]

Hi - you may already know about this but evidently as of mid december you
can now invite chat bots into googletalk, in order to have instant messaging
conversations with people in different languages. (widget version also
supports group chat).

I do not have the technical expertise to know how to implement gtalk on the
xo but would be interested in doing some tests or participating in a
multilingual classroom connection as part of my phd dissertation.
Multilingual IM on the xo would be a dream come true. Perhaps it might work
through the "integrated" gtalk in gmail or iGoogle. (I don't know as I don't
have my g1g1 yet).

"Fascinating for me to sit here and realize the interplay and influence that
music can have -- it is a part of my life, yet I haven't continued as I
could, partly out of thinking "there are more important things". but it has
it's place. i am sitting at olpc offices, and someone is playing pink floyd,
and I think music is a gift of creativity that can inspire an atmosphere of
creativity, and the range of such echoes is infinite." - Me
