SMS Text Messaging for chat

Google had rolled out a new feature to Gmail Labs that lets you send SMS text messages right from Gmail. It combines the best parts of IM and texting: you chat from your computer and reach your friends no matter where they are.

But they found a glitch. When you'd try to turn it on, it wouldn't fully enable. So they've pulled SMS chat back to fix it. It will probably be back within 2 weeks, so stay tuned.
