Google Talk Adds Blog Badge
You can now add a Google Talk badge to your blog/website, letting your visitors chat with you at any time right in the website. As long as you are signed into your Google Talk account, even if visitors do not have an account of their own, they can just start chatting with you, with multiple conversations coming in tabs. Visit the Google Talk Chatback page to get the HTML and get started.

I met the same disclaimer. That’s a fatal defect for a online assistent.
