GTalk online status on you web page

Google Talk is becoming more popular, and if you use it you certainly want all your friends to know that you are on line and willing to talk.

To partially solve this problem, Jon Burrows has developed a nice service called Gtalk Online Status Display.

At this point, it is a no thrills service: to enroll you just need to send the developer a Gtalk invitation at gtalkonlinestatus@gmail.com. Then, you will receive a status number that you can link to an html tag in your web page. The script you return an image that says if you are currently online at Gtalk.

It looks very interesting, and hopefully the service will be made more robust in the near future.
