I made a quick tutorial for those that wish to use their Steam overlay while playing Diablo III.

Because some are not able to watch the video because of "BLOCK" reasons, I have also included a step by step walk through below.

4. Click Apply in the lower right corner.
5. Navigate to the Steam LIBRARY section of the Steam interface.
6. Click on "ADD A GAME" in the lower left corner and select "Add a Non-Steam game".
7. While the list is populating, click "BROWSE" and navigate to your Diablo III installation folder.
8. Select the file "Diablo III Launcher.exe" & Click "Open" in the lower right corner.
9. When you're back to the Steam "Add a Game" interface, click on "ADD SELECTED PROGRAMS".
10. Navigate to the newly added "Diablo III Launcher" and right click and select properties.
11. Rename from "Diablo III Launcher" to "Diablo III" (only edit the top entry not the .EXE line).
