While guild talents may have been scrapped in Cataclysm, the bonuses you would have gotten from them appear to have survived the culling fairly intact -- as of this beta build, guild perks (as they're called) are active and awesome. This list is by no means exhaustive, as chances are good there'll be plenty more in the game.
The full list is after the cut, but here are a few to whet your appetite:

I know I'm going to get thumbed down in 10 seconds, but am I the only one that feels that some of these changes are for the truly lazy? At what point are they just going to take death or dying out of the game and just auto-rez us as we die?
"You have 5 lives left for this attempt, resurrect?"
"Would you like to have more health and do more damage?" "Click DPS moar"
Part of what I thought made WOW a great game was that you had to plan a little bit to get things done, such as enchants, using the AH, going to a specific location for something, etc. It feels like they're taking the size of the world out of the game. This is great for the mouth-breathers in trade chat as it'll give them more time to type "an*l [any spell name here].

Hunter + Feign Death + Mass Resurrection = win?

Hows this going to work for a vanity guild? I left my guild six months ago and have just been playing guildless. But if these kind of perks are reachable, I might consider forming one, as even some of the lesser ones interest me.

"Have Group, Will Travel" could you imagne a rogue sneaking into SW the summering 39 peopel!!? That would be hella OP, and IMHO, Blizz would have to slap a 2 hour debuff on all raid members so that that buff cannot be used again
