Google Talk right in Gmail

Firstly I thought “wow, that’s cool!”. But practice showed that it was a bad idea. E-mail is an e-mail, and there is very little common with im’s. In fact it is very uncomfortable go back to your e-mail and chat there, especiall in tabbed browsers (I use Mozilla). So in fact i have to switch away from the page I was reading just to say “Hello” to somebody. Pop-up option also not saves the day.

From Google talk I’m waiting for:

• integration of all IM protokolls
• nice themes

That’s all. I beleive that when the will apply 2 of these function the ammount of user will grow enormously.
