Gmail may soon offer Friend Updates?

 Folks at Google Operating System has found code that suggest that Google Chat also known as Gtalk within Gmail may soon offer friend updates, similar to services offered by Plaxo.

Actually Google already offers this update service in Orkut and Picasa web albums. Besides this recently Google Feed Reader has recently started to displaying shared items from your Google Talk contacts. But i don’t get it why we need more of these lousy services that do nothing then cluttering your workspace.

For more check out the Google Operating System Blog.

The Gmail updates will probably gather all this information, merge it with recent activities from other Google services and display it in a continous stream, similar to Facebook’s newsfeed.
