Official Gmail Blog: Gmail + chat + AIM = crazy delicious

An interesting development. However, it seems pretty one-sided. You can log into AIM from Gtalk, but can you talk with your Gtalk chums from AIM? Not that it matters that much to me. I have a few friends that I regularly chat with in Gtalk, and even more occasionally in Yahoo. As someone who doesn’t live in a chat client (well, I use a variant of MS Messenger at work, but that’s integrated with the network…blah blah), this isn’t too impactful. At one time, though, this would have been huge news.
