Google Talk and Skype Sitting in a Tree...

Poking through my feeds this late night I saw that Ron wrote up a little piece about the future of Google Talk. It turns out that Google has made an agreement with Skype, allowing the services to work together (soon).

This also has a very important side effect. In essence, Google will now have a Talk client for both Mac and Linux. Previously, Mac and Linux users could use GTalk through Jabber, however there was no way to voice chat.
