Default Msn and Yahoo contacts in Gtalk???

Is there any way to add my msn or yahoo contacts to my gtalk account so I can chat with them? I'd google it and found some old solutions that did not work for me.

I'm using Meebo to chat and it works fine for me but i think that gtalk would eat less battery, and it has a better interface.

Does anyone know how? Is it possible by now?

Thanks in advance

No, download nimbuzz. It handles chat from MSN, yahoo, gtalk, Facebook, Skype. Pretty much everything

Thanks a lot, but for that I prefer Meebo. I just wanted to use Gogle talk to chat with my msn and yahoo contacts.

I tried and had no sucess. I realy dunno why!

I added my gtalk account after that i added icq transport.

I was able to see my contacts from icq and gtalk but it doesn´t include my icq contacts into my gtalk.

Where is my mistake? Do i miss a step?
