or are you talking about using Gtalk or whatever the google IM service is called?

Does it do AIM/MSN/ICQ?

To use OctroTalk, you have to have a gmail account (which means you have a gtalk account...). You install OctroTalk on your device, then sign in with your google username / password. Then, you can configure legacy accounts (yahoo / aol / icq / msn). It uses something called transports to connect to those services. Whenever you chat with your buddy (on gtalk / yahoo / aol / msn / icq), it is saved in your gtalk chat history.

Your gtalk chat history is available when you are logged into gmail. It appears as a special "folder", like "sent mail". When you click on it, you see all your history listed and can click to view the transcripts.
