Add GTalk To Opera Sidebar [Hacks n Mods]
It is pretty much easy to add GTalk to the sidebar in Firefox, but if you are a Opera user there are no widgets available to do that currently.
The WongSK blog has a excellent tutorial that will help you add GTalk to the sidebar panel in Opera. To add GTalk to the Opera sidebar, follow the simple instructions below.
- Enable Panel view in the Sidebar, you can do this by click the tools icon in the left hand side corner of the browser.
- Right click the panel and click customize.
- Click on the Add Web Panelbutton.
- Give the panel a name and add the GTalk gadget URL ( http://talkgadget.google.com/talkgadget/client?fid=gtalk0&relay=http://www.google.com) as the address and click on Ok button.
Once you have followed these steps, a new icon will be displayed in the panel, clicking on the new icon should display GTalk in Opera sidebar.

Hi, the sidebar is very good, but there is one problem – the sidebar is flash-based and when someone send you a link or some text, you can't copy it.
Is there any other way to have the Gtalk side bar addition without being a flash?
i do and work perfect! thanks
