What about a solid way to embed GTalk into a hosted Google Site. Is there a gadget that is better than others? Maybe works with IE and it’s … quirks?
@Tenkely – Yes, Embedding in Google Site is another way to use gtalk. But it would be an additional effort. Better use the gadget directly.
And try the mobile gadget, probably it will work better with naughty IE.
