Comments on: Google brings text-messaging to online chat

Before: Gmail Chat worked only with computer-based instant messaging services. Now: send text messages to contacts with phones.

MSN Messenger has had this feature for almost 5 years now.

Yahoo has had this built into their email system for quite some time now.
It's nothing new.

Wow - only 5 years behind the times. It's like Google invented the Internet too!
