Tired of the boring old Google Talk messaging service? Gplus is an add-on that gives the program the boost it needs. Gplus seamlessly integrates into the Google Talk interface, and allows users to be more expressive in their conversations- they can insert animated emotions into chats, pick sounds to accompany the emotions, save chat logs, utilize text formatting, and filter text. In the future, Gplus will also be formatted to cater to foreign languages. The site has put forth a Gplus 2.0 model, and will shortly introduce Gplus 2.1. At present, Gplus is completely free. For those that choose to really jump on the bandwagon, the site also sells Gplus paraphernalia.

“Gplus is an add-on for Google Talk, the instant messaging software by Google.”

|
||
| Why it might be a killer | |||
|
|
|
Gplus is a totally free product that enhances an already popular service. Given the popularity and ubiquity of using animated icons in other forms of messaging, users will likely be looking for something similar when they use Google Talk. Plus, Gplus provides sounds to accompany the animations- meaning that it provides a unique feature for this specific technology.

| Some questions | |||

|
|
What if Google develops these features for its own product? If Gplus decides to charge money in the future, will Google want another company profiting off its technology?
