Google Chat Badge

Just read about a new Google Chat option that I think is pretty sweet.  You can now embed a widget on a blog that will allow ANYONE, even those without Google accounts to chat with you.  I have embedded one on my blog, so feel free to chat with me. 🙂

Uses in education?  Could be used by teacher’s as another way to get students to talk to them… then again… maybe we don’t want that. 🙂
