Chat with Your Friends Directly from Your Browser Using Meebo

If you are a 'Chat Junkie' and spend a lot of chatting with your friends like me then Meebo is a place for you. Meebo is an online Instant Messenger that allows you to chat with your friends and colleagues from anywhere around the world. At Meebo you can login with your Yahoo, Hotmail, AIM, ICQ, Jabber or Gtalk account.

Meebo has a very simple and easy to navigate graphical interface and it looks like a desktop instant messenger that you mostly use. If you have a fast internet connection then you won't have any problem in chatting with your friends. But, you won't be able to use it on a slow dial-up connection.

Features:

Here are some useful features offered by Meebo:

1) You can login in using one email ID and then you will be able to access all your accounts simultaneously.

2) One good feature of Meebo is that you can rename your friends in your buddy list to whatever you like. This means that if your friend has nickname then you can make that nickname to appear instead of your friend's name or email address. Isn't that great!

3) You can access you chat history online, anytime from your account.

4) If you have a fast internet connection then you can even video chat with your friends.

5) Meebo allows you to install a widget in your blog or website with which you can chat one-on-one with your visitors. You can see visitors to your site, let them know when you are available to chat, and include an optional status message.

6) If none of your buddies are online and you are getting bored, then you can go to the chat rooms where you can meet other people and make new friends.

7) The Meebo Firefox Extension will give you a sidebar buddy list and will send you visual notifications when your friends instant message you.

Conclusion:

Meebo is a service and it is very helpful when you are on the go. It allows you to chat with your friends and colleagues for free without installing anything. You can also login to your Meebo account through your iPhone for free and without any downloads. I suggest that you bookmark this website because you will definitely need it sometime in the future.
