NovWednesday,

So all were right. Google has now finally integrated G-Talk with Orkut. Lets first see how is integration now.
In your friends section, below your friends image you will see dots,(I saw only one green, today), same dots which are seen on G-Talk. Green for online and and red with minus sign for off-line. Pretty nice. But I could only see it after I saw green button, it would have been much better, if they would have send everybody a message, as a good news.One can add all his friends to his G-Talk account, thats pretty cool. On Orkut there is no more integration to be seen, but better integration is seen on G-Talk. There one will find specific orkut button, and links to send scrap. Every thing is fine, but why must I open another browser window for sending a scrap, It would have been mighty better if there would have been direct facility for scrapping.
This was about what they did... But if it would have been on me... I would have certainly did it differently. I would have integrated it much deeper, yes on orkut page itself. Very much like online chat clients(Meebo etc.). Hello Google.. the world at least, Web 2.0 is more about web and desktop integration, rather than doing things individually.
But still, I am happy, now it wont be needed to ask friends for Y! chat by scrapping them.
I am also happy for G-Talk, its best IM client out there in web world, no frills attached and highly productive.

You all can certainly tell me, that what else integration you would like to see, in orkut or any other web service for that matter.
