Flash based version opens a video player playing YouTube videos and image viewer to view Flickr photos directly inside messaging window - using Flash capabilities to the max! Unfortunately, VoIP is not supported in Flash based IM, I suspect mainly because of limitations of Flash9, let's wait untill Flash 10 ;) Hi Josh,

Personally, I think it's too visually simple (and I like Google's approach to interfaces, generally), and I found it very annoying when it connected every time I checked my email. I disabled it some time ago. JabbyPanda, isn’t that the one that’s part of GMail’s interface?
