Google has made a powerful decision on web of finally adding one of the biggest oversights to the Web-based version of its Google Talk service: size limit-free, P2P file transfers.
The feature, which has been a part of the service’s desktop software since mid-2006, went live on the Google Talk widgets inside of iGoogle and Orkut on Monday.
The endgame here–which Google says is coming, is to bring file-sharing into Gmail’s integrated Google Talk. Imagine, if you will, a situation where you want to share a big file, and Gmail’s attachment limit is just not cutting it. Your options are simple: you could hop over to another Google property with storage and upload the file there. Or you could go with a myriad of external file-sharing and storage services. Once this feature comes to Gmail, though, you just bug the other person to hop on Google Talk, and then start your large transfer there.
