Google Talk

[time]

Anyone used Google Talk? I'm finding huge delays in messages being sent (at least between Australia and India), sometimes up to 5 minutes or so.

I use it occasionally. I've not noticed any delays, but then I haven't used it for a few days. Has this been an ongoing thing or a recent development?

I mostly use it to chat with my sister who lives one state away; she uses the app while I use the iGoogle widget.

I use the one built into gmail about once a week and haven't noticed anything.

I have a tab permanently opened to meebo and Google's IM seems more reliable than Yahoo's for me.

I use the gmail built in chat all the time and haven't noticed delays. I'm also talking with people who are local to me.
