Heh, me too.
Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!

Jessica, I added you to my Jabber contact list. It says "Waiting for Authorization."
google talk people, how are you logging in?
Under Preferences, set up a Jabber account, using your Gmail address as the username, and talk.google.com as the server.
requires Tiger, apparently.
No, these grapes aren't sour at all.
Jessica, I'm getting a "can't connect." I am using Gaim. Is there something I need to put in the "resource" area?
I don't know anything about Gaim, sorry. (I'm using iChat.)
Check here for info: [link]
eta: Gaim instructions:
1. Add an account, select "Jabber" as the protocol.
2. Your screen name is everything before the '@gmail.com'.
3. Server is 'gmail.com'.
4. Click "show more options" and make sure "use TLS if available" is checked. Leave "Force old SSL" and "allow plaintext..." unchecked for now. Connection port should be 5222, connection server should be 'talk.google.com' without the quotes.
5. Ta-da! Just login and you should be good-to-go.
... but gaim is on the other machine. It's in a whole 'nother room!
oh! that's awesome. thanks tommy!
