Google Talk Gadget

Google team just announced a new gadget available for google personal homepage: Google Talk Gadget.
Basically it’s a flash version of the Gtalkr application. It has a lot of features such as share YouTube videos or Picasa WebAlbum pictures…

Does this mean that the google crew has started to look at flash more that in the past? Maybe a new way to remove the “beta” to all its AJAX apps?
Probably also thanks to the linux flash player 9 recent release?

Gtalkr

Anybody using Gmail? How about Google Talk?
If so, 2Entwine has created a truely awsome Flash App called Gtalkr!! Right now it is Beta 2.0.0.67, but in my opinion a very promising RIA (Rich Internet Application).

  • Google Talk contact information
  • Contact presence changes
  • Gtalkr Notifier integration
  • Drag and drop support

It lists friends, your Gmail Account, a Flickr slideshow, a YouTube component, and much more…
Still not enough? Well Gtalkr also has a blog, Everything Gtalkr that will keep you up to date!!
Still want more? Well it even supports extensions!! A combination of XML and Flash…”you’ll need to create the Flash file that Gtalkr will load.”
I see a lot of potential in this application and fresh view on customization that other portal technologies lack….
