There are many people around the world complaining that Google Talk needs a Windows 98 version. This blog post has become a place for people with similar feelings about Google Talk coming together to ask for Google to develop a version for their operating system.
Obviously the larger the network of users, the better it is for Google and others using their software. I wonder if Google will take any action on this matter.

hight of stupidity by google idiots should make a software that supports all O.S ,
they could make the software to support all windows like msn and yahoo ,aim and more they have versions for all windows google is stupid and they should kick they marketing manager on his ass and get a real pro!
Google Talk is just a fancy Jabber (www.jabber.org) client.
If you need to connect to Google Talk from windows 98, download Psi, or Miranda, or GAIM, or any other jabber compatible IM client.

Or, you can always use a web-based solution:

http://www.meebo.com/
Or you could upgrade your systems to an OS that actually takes advantage of the modern hardware available. XP hasn't been unstable since pre-SP1.
This is good for talking or messaging service. I have the Win 98 Operating system in my system.
Google!.. Please make a version for Win 98 SE. I know I am being pre-historic, but I love Win 98.
Thank You!
So there is no version for WIN 98????.....
Google,why dont u just consider all 98ers request and just release one version?.......
I dont think thats difficult for you guys..
Pls..pls....pls....try to make it as early as possible
Thanks you....
hey google, you should make a version for all win 98 users, we are still a lot.

any workaround solution available?

Although Microsoft has launed latest windows including XP,2000, Vista etc, but still most of the peoples around the world are suing windows 98 as their Operating System, and i am the one among them. I need a google talk that runs on win98. I request the Google Team to please launch a google talk for windows 98. Thanks.
need google talk for windows 98
nothing pls send google talk
need gtalk for win98 badly...........when msn and yahoo can do it...why not google
Hi yaar!
Google need to release a version of Google talk which supports win98. Because the low configuration system will not have winXP/win2K. because it needs minimum 64MB of RAM. so those system will be using Win98. So Please Provide google talk which supports win98.
Thanks,
Arun Prakash

this is argent .
i need download gmail talk on win98
i still cannot download which one to able to chat on win 98
this is g talk for win98 it is wery good
Well, you guys all got your prayers answered. You can now use Google's text chat feature via their GMail service if you set the language to 'US English'.
As for the notion that Google 'should' provide a version of talk for Windows 98 - If you want the latest technologies you have to move with the times. Sticking with outmoded hardware or software is your own decision and noone elses. It's that simple.
I think this is a great time for me to chime in. Many users would rather have a software vendor support the latest hardware than the oldest. For example, how many people would want to use Google Talk on handheld WiFi devices such as PDAs?
The flip side to this is that people who have the highest phone bills typically live in areas where salaries are very low and as such they can't afford the latest technology. There is no easy answer to this dilemma but it is worth pointing out that other VoIP software does support Windows 98 so you aren't stuck with Google Talk if your computer doesn't support it.
Pls send me google talk for windows Me
I run dual OS, XP SP2 and Win98, the problem is XP can't hold an internet connection for I to use google talk, I luv Win98 SE and would luv to see google talk for that OS, There're many people out there who luv and prefer Win98 SE above the other OS, come on, make OUR day!!!

e foarte reusit, se poate comunica foarte bine, thx
i have a question where do find google talk for windows 98 the one i found is only for windows xp
I'm on Windows 98 (1st ed.) using Psi as Alan Berman suggested above (he gave liks to different options), and it's great! There really is no need for Google to create a fix for every app for every service they have for every operating system we might be using, when there's an online community that can provide apps that do that so well, for free. If they have to do everything for us they'll just have to become some sort of microsoftian enterprise, and that would be a shame.
Google Earth support for Windows 98 would be nice, though, heh.

Infelizmente, os paÃses de 3º mundo só agora estão tendo acesso a computadores. Sendo assim a grande maioria desses computadores operam o "sistema mais estável" que a microsoft fez o "Windows 98". Eles tem que encarar essa realidade, e manter por mais um tempo atualizações de programas que rodem windows 98.
If it works.I will very thankful to you.
