Google Talk (also known as Gtalk) is Google's instant commnunications service. There are already 3 official Google Talk copies:

1. Google Talk Client (Windows only, written in C or C++)
2. Google Talk Gadget (For all modern browsers that support Flash, platform independent)
3. Google Talk Web (Integrated with GMail, for all browsers that support JavaScript)

Here is a pure JavaScript copy of Google Talk Client from non-Google communities. It is first implemented in Java language using Eclipse SWT and Smack (A library for Jabber's XMPP). Then the client is converted to JavaScript with servlet supports. And then it's deployed on a Tomcat server. For more details or architectural information, please visit blog "Inside Java2Script".

If you find any bugs or have any advices, please be kind to let me ( zhourenjian at gmail dot com ) know.
