I wrote an article some time ago about how to
Hyperlink to Messenger Applications
but at the time I couldn't find how to hyperlink to Google Talk. Thanks
to Jaspreet, that mystery has been solved. Below is an updated list of
how to link to messenger (instant messenger) applications.
Thanks for the comment and question. If you'd like, email me your entire code to adam@adamwlewis.com and I'd be glad to take a look for you. I'm confident the code works IF YOU HAVE Google Talk installed on your computer. You can verify this by clicking the link on the right hand side of my website until .contactMe and next to .google.

I run Google Talk through iChat and I use Firefox 3. I made a link to my Google Talk s/n from my blog according to your prescriptions, but when I click on it I get this message from FireFox: "Firefox doesn't know how to open this address, because the protocol (gtalk) isn't associated with any program."

Thanks for the comments Jaspreet. There are lots of commands you can pass to the applications for various things like: join a group, add to contacts, etc. This article just focused on the chatting aspect, but I'll likely write another article later on about the other commands available.

<a href="msnim:add?contact=netpassport@emailaddress.com ">Click to add me to your contact list!</a>
this is very intersting method to make someone add to his contact list even without his knowledge
