centericq: Text messaging for the Gmail+Terminal freaks!
How nice it is to just stay on the terminal with hands on the keyboard, staying away from that wierd mouse. I just configured centericq for that particular purpose. Its pretty simple.
Step 1.
Install the centericq package :
$ sudo apt-get install centericq
Step 2.
Configure it for the Google Talk:
$ centericq

Secured : yes
Login : ********@gmail.com

Update user details
Set away message
Drop
Step 3.
What are you waiting for now? Just chat!
