I agree, it makes a lot of sense to have some kind of online version of the status message that doesn't just disappear when you change it. Not sure why Google itself hasn't come up with a solution to this problem yet. Yeah, I wrote a little follow-up over at my place.

During my allotted creativity time at One:Ten (one of the many many perks of working for One:Ten Communications, Dan! :) I decided to work on a Google Talk bot that would "listen" to my buddy status messages, log them to a database, and then make them available to me as RSS. Unfortunately, my creativity time concluded before the project did, and the current version is not very smart about not hi-jacking my presence and gobbling up messages that people send me. Shouldn't be a big deal to fix, but will take precious time at some point. Thanks for pointing out your Pownce page! Didn't know you were actively using it. I've now added my Pownce friends feed to Google Reader even though I don't actually use Pownce myself. You’ve pointed out a need that I was also working on about a month ago.

You can have twitter as one of your contacts, and then you can im it a message and it posts it to twitter. Really simple, really nice. I don't have to go to twitter.com and update there, but I can do it right from the living room. Twitter can be really easily integrated with google talk.
