We all love Gtalk because of its simple and clean looks, though it does not have all those crappy features that other IM clients feel proud upon. You must have got tired of default yahoo messenger skin, yes me too got tired. Now you can make your messenger look like gtalk by installing yahoo messenger version of gtalk theme. This skin does not any add any new features in your messenger but it does make it look clean and beautiful.

I’ll add some more tips and tricks on google talk as soon as they come my way.

 

If you’ve got many Gmail accounts and don’t want to keep logging on and off them every time you switch, a simple command line parameter in the Google Talk shortcut can solve your problem.

  • First, create one copy of the Google Talk shortcut on your desktop - leave the original intact.
  • Right click on this shortcut and choose Properties. The Target box will show you the path of the EXE for Google Talk - something like “C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk\googletalk.exe”
  • Change this to: “C:\Program Files\Google\Google Talk\googletalk.exe” /nomutex

and click OK.

Now you can login with as many gmail accounts as you like. Hurray..!!
