Meebo

Submitted by justin on April 10, 2006 - 5:29pm

In this post, I will discuss a web-delivered IM application called Meebo.

Meebo is an AJAX app that allows logging in to AIM/ICQ, MSN, YAHOO!, and Jabber/GTalk. It is entirely web-based and can be run on any browser that has JavaScript enabled. I find it highly useful in places where I don't have my USB stick or where the computers have been locked down by gestapo IT folks. It has a nice interface that is easy to use even for people new to computers. The two things that I find lacking is the inability to have groupchats and the lack of IRC support (which I don't use too much anymore anyway). All things considered, it is extremely good, I highly recommend that you try it out.

I've used Meebo ever since it came out, and I love it.

One comment: Kill the www32 part and change it to plain old www -- the 32 is a mirror number, and if too many people are on that particular mirror it won't work anymore.

In fact you introduced me to it not so long ago...
Maybe you've been hired by Meebo. Wink
