That's actually not a bad idea. But let me expand on that. Why shouldn't google create an entirely web-based solution using AJAX? Clearly with Google Maps, they have demonstrated how powerful AJAX can be. I haven't had the chance to personally implement AJAX myself yet, but I wonder if it can be used to "push" out from server to client(web-browser).
Think about how advantageous this would be. Not only would they be able to update all the IM clients instantaneously on the server-side but this could remedy all the 3rd party client-breaking shennanigans that MSN, AIM, or Yahoo messenger is always trying to pull!
