Chat application Google Talk for Windows is to permanently close tomorrow, to be usurped indefinitely by Google Hangouts, Google’s more advanced instant messaging and video chat service.
Any user planning to move from Google Talk for Windows, a standalone app, to Google Hangouts now needs to use the Chrome browser. However, there are plenty of holdouts still using Google Talk, preferring the old software to Hangouts due to advantages with file-sharing and appearing invisible. Those people will still be able to use Google Talk functionality, but through third-party applications, such as Trillian and Pidgin, though Google says it cannot guarantee users’ privacy or security.
