For Google Talk, Jabber, AIM, MSN, etc I use ERC + Bitlbee.  
Then I needed a bot to auto-reply people when I was not here.

So I set up a dummy bot with erc-robot.el :
http://www.emacswiki.org/cgi-bin/wiki/erc-robot.el

Now this bot can also handle requests from a normal IRC channel, so when
I'm there, people can send commands like:

,org-bmk     : send or look for a bookmark about Org, GTD, etc.
,org-fortune : get a fortune cookie about planning, org, ...
,org-fortune+: set a fortune cookie
,todo        : send me a TODO item (yeah, sick, I know)
,tell        : tell something to the bot
,ask         : ask something to the bot
,ggl         : google around and return the first 3 results
,org-list    : digg the mailing list [experimental]


I hacked erc-robot.el a bit and the code for the commands is very
unpolished, but I may put it somewhere if anyone interested. 

I also know that people use such a robot on #emacs, and their bot is
certainly much more clever that this one, but I didn't have time to
check this so far...
