Easiest Way to Add A Live Chat Button in Your Blog
Perhaps many of you have seen Google Talk button in a blog or a site. You can chat with the webmaster if you find him online. But I never cared to go into the details of it. I thought only Gmail users can chat with you using it and they will find your Gmail id. But recently I stumbled into a forum page about how easy it is and explored Google Talk chatback badge a bit.
And it is really simple and good enough to protect your privacy. You just need to create your own chatback badge. You can use your existing Gmail account to create one. Or if you want to create Google Talk chatback badge for your own domain using Google Apps, go to this link http://www.google.com/talk/service/a/DOMAIN/badge/New where DOMAIN is your own domain name. But anyway the user won’t find your Gtalk id. And moreover anybody can have a chat with you. They don’t need to be a Gtalk or Gmail user.
They will only see the badge title that you choose as your nickname. So you have nothing to worry about leaking your personal information. And about implementation, it is the easiest thing to embed in your site or blog. Just cut and paste some HTML code into your source code and you can see the Google Talk bubble wherever you want.
