Why is google talk listed as dead?
It's one of the services I use every day for chat and VoIP (V as in Voice and Video) because of their excellent cross-platform support (life sometimes ain't easy on linux).
Also the addition of AIM integration indicates it's very actively being worked on, unfortunately I don't know anybody still using that network.
Of course there is still the mysterious lack of VoIP on android, but does that make the whole service useless?
Just because the social aspect of reader sucks, doesn't make the service useless. I use it extensivly to keep track of posts from dozens of sites. I really couldn't care less about the social aspect of reader, personally. I find it to be a useful aggregator of stories.

As far as I can tell, Google Talk is otherwise alive and well. I use it regularly in Gmail.
