How can you still use Gtalk?

There are some Gtalk fervors out there who swear by Gtalk and are not willing to use any other new integrated applications. For those users out there, you can still use Gtalk but you cannot use it from Google. There are many third party applications which provide you the option of using GTalk through them. However, logging in from a third party application always has some security issues and hence you should be careful while using Gtalk from these apps.

However, Hangouts is a new application which provides many excellent features and should be thus given a chance.
