Today I'm reading about many more interesting developments than usual in the world of communication technologies. AOL has opened up developer access to their instant messaging system, and Cisco is about to announce a new communications platform that embraces SIP technology. There was also news today of AT & T agreeing to buy BellSouth.

You should now be able to add a Googletalk contact to your Vling buddy list, and send them a text message. The team is working on ironing out a couple of issues, but I saw it working last night in Tom Hsieh's office. Kindly remember that Vling is still in beta, and as such does not yet have the full blessing of a finished and released product.

Google just announced that they've opened up access to part of Googletalk, their instant messenger client, so that it can talk to Vling, EarthLink's instant messenger client. Google and EarthLink have created a federation of companies that believe in letting our messaging systems interoperate with each other. We've invited all other instant messaging systems to join, and we hope that today is the first of many such announcements.
