This post will help you use Google Talk (Gtalk) in different alternate ways if your network administrator has blocked Instant Messaging (IM) or if you are using an old computer. Try all the following steps one by one.
- Download and Install Gtalk from www.google.com/talk
- Open Gmail. You can chat inside Gmail after you "turn on chat".
- Use the Google Talk Gadget
- Use the Gtalk Sidebar add on in your Firefox Browser.
- Sign in igoogle, your personalized Google Homepage. Go to "Add Stuff" and add Gtalk.
- Use Meebo at www.meebo.com. Here, you can sign in AIM, Yahoo!, MSN, Google Talk, ICQ and Jabber at the same time.
- Use a Jabber Client. You can sign in to any Jabber Client with your Google Login. Google Search "jabber clients" to download one. Search for "online jabber clients" to use Google Talk in Jabber in a browser.
- Go to demo.java2script.org/gtalk or izuz.net/gtalk. This is a copy of Gtalk, but written in JavaScript. Its slower than the original version, but it does work!
- Use a proxy site to go to the Google Talk Gadget or Meebo. Google search "proxy sites" or "proxy servers" and you will find many. If the first few don't work, keep trying more. (Do not use sensitive information like credit card numbers when you are under a proxy, as these sites cannot be trusted completely).
- Try the Meebo Repeater. This will turn a computer which has internet access without problems (like your home computer) into a proxy server, to which you can connect any other computer and use Meebo.
- Go to Mobile Instant Messaging on this blog to use IM directly on your mobile phone.
