Why they didnt evolve google talk into a skype clone is beyond me.

I have 20 ideas at least of cool features, but as we only have skype this type of product will stagnate.

Hangouts is kind of a Skype clone.

Yip, Google Talk is merging with Hangouts ... I wouldn't bet on those 20 cool features any time soon though
