Having contact information is integral to a good email client but signing you in to their IM client by default is not. Just because I want to check email doesn't mean I also want to be available to talk with others.

It is far too reminiscent of Hotmail and Outlook logging me into MSN Messenger by default and then having messages pop open before I have a chance to log out.

I do give Google credit because I was able to easily turn this off, unlike the MSN stuff which required me to uninstall messenger.
