Ah. The last time I tried using it was the built-in "client" in gmail, which opened a flash embed but that certainly may have changed.

There is plenty of other Google software that they felt didn't need to be ported to Linux for whatever reason. And the software they did port was a long time after the Windows releases (Google Earth; Chrome), sloppy (Picaso via WINE) or non-existent.

I'm not saying Google is bad. I love Google Streetview, Google Voice, Google Maps/directions, GMail and of course search.

I'm just pointing out that they live in a bubble (or "cloud" if you follow) and outside of that all they see for their target audience is Windows. Hopefully they will someday be enlightened.
