Cool, thanks so much for the breakdown, I like to give my readers a better idea before they go forwards and just look at a website :)

Of course, the application reads the Google Talk status message from a Google chat badge and sends it to Twitter. But you can define some restrictions to avoid sending repeated status messages or to be able to have some status message that won’t be sent to Twitter. If you sign up you’ll find some more explanations in the website.

I’ve also created a hosted service to update your twitter based on the Google Talk status message. I’ve added the possibility to ignore an already posted status and to ignore status messages that start with some text. Enjoy!

I found another way to get gtalk status to twitter without using the jabber service. By setting up a google chat badge and parsing it, I could get the status and post it to Twitter. Here’s the details: http://www.jdeutsch.com/pg/2008/4/13/Google_Talk_Status_to_Twitter
