Great design, meebo, online instant message
Wednesday, January 9th, 2008Meebo is awesome.
Whether you’re looking to chat on your favorite messenger (AIM, Yahoo, MSN, GTalk, etc) or all of them, you can’t really go wrong with Meebo. For those of you out there looking to sneak-in some IMs at the workplace (one that either frowns-upon or straight-up “doesn’t allow” instant messenging), Meebo can sit in-browser so as long as your not a the net-user equivalent of a caveman, you can setup tabbed-browsing to “hide” the site. It’ll look just like any other “blog,” or whatever it is that you use browsers for.
It’s worthy of note not-only because it’s free, combines all of the majors in-one, but because it’s designed really well. It’s simple and clutter-free, it’s fast, and it’s modifiable. You can minimize, maximize, pop windows in and out… it’s all you could ever ask for.
So now you don’t have to worry about proprietary ad-covered offerings, and gone are the days of installing and uninstalling services, or the very-dreaded “forgot to sign-out/remove your username/password” at the netcafĂ© or other public computer.
Check it out. And then twitter me.
