dunno if there would be much support for this though... I mean ICQ use to be the big standout a few years back, and then when msn came out, it has thrived, probably becoming the worlds most used IM program... and its free, so not many people will change over to a google made IM Service...

whats everyone think?

I wouldn't use it because google keeps records on everything that passes through google's (insert latest name here...) (check out the gmail controvery)

Basically unlike most other serivces who simply dump data once it's no longer valid google keeps it all in it's archives, so once it's been deleted it can still be brought back... It's kinda like have a microphone recording all coversations with your mates...

Google would need to prove that they aren't keeping anything that passes through it...

BTW there is no laws against google keeping records like this, plus there are no privacy rules which will stop FBI, coppers, your worst enemy asking google for the records, and what is more there is nothing stopping google handing them over...

A good way to put it is that I don't use the telephone to talk about illegal stuff, why should my telephone calls still be recorded for the hell of it???
