Google Talk Tips and Tricks



With Google talk getting popular messenger these days, I would like to share some tricks ...the unsaid extra features.

Insert breaks - If you want to have multiple paragraphs in a message, hold shift and hit enter. Now you can add as many new lines as you want to create.

Format text - You can make text either bold or italic by surrounding it with * or _.
Example: _hello_ = hello
*hello* = hello

Font size - Hold the control key, move the scroll wheel on your mouse either up or down. But it only works in write are :(

Switch windows
- Hitting tab will cycle through open chat windows. Hit enter to expand the window.Cycling again to another window collapses the expanded one.

Innovative Buzz - You must be aware of 'Buzz' option in yahoo messenger. Gtalk doesnot have such feature. Just give a missed call in gtalk . Call a user and End the call immediately. It acts like Buzz :P .
