Google Chat, gone

Hey, what happened to my browser-based Google Chat? For a while there I was able to chat in Gmail, but now I can’t anymore. Hey Google, what up with that?

Update: Thanks to Tif, who gets the tech support of the day award. She correctly diagnosed and solved the problem! All you gotta do is change the beginning of the url from “https” to “http”. Now I have to choose between security and the ability to chat… Thanks for the help, everyone (especially Tif)!

  1. at least you got it for 2.5 nanoseconds. I actively tried to use it, but my efforts were futile, and then all P does is turn on his computer and WaPOW he has it. I don’t like Google’s picking and choosing ways.

  2. At first I couldn’t get it to work either and after asking “google help” how to use chat I discovered that it only works if the url is http: not https:. I guess they haven’t gotten to that yet. I tried http and got it to work
