My Tools: Google Calendar

Today I'm going to talk about another tool. A very important one for me. I tend to forget stuff, and my mind tends to be chaotic.

He has a nice screen shot of the account configuration window for , which you can easily use to configure your own Gaim for GoogleTalk usage. Nice! And Google officially allows it as well. I'm connected using stefan.koopmanschap at [googlee-mailservice] . com ... if you dont have a gmail account yet but would like one, to start using , just let me know ... I have plenty of invites left.
