Gmail + Gtalk now active

Google chat got added to my Gmail account this morning. I like the job they've done with integrating contacts into the chat UI. For those who haven't noticed, there's a "standard without chat" option in the footer which lets you remove the gtalk integration if you so desire.

If you want to rename a contact you added via Gmail + GTalk, mouse over the contact's name and click on "contact details", then click edit contact info (since the name is pulled from your contacts list). When you're done editing contact info, click save and the name will update in the GTalk UI.
