Meebo has pumped up its iOS app with a handful of new features which take it beyond multi-network instant messaging. Initial Twitter support has been added, as has the ability for users to check-in to websites they're browsing. You can enter a site manually, or simply scan a QR code. There's also a new real-time feed tab which displays updates from your Facebook, Twitter, and Meebo streams. The ...

We've got check-in apps for locations, media, and even wine, so why not for websites? That's where Meebo comes in with its soon to be released MiniBar. While it's not the first to bring check-ins to websites -- both Badgeville and OneTrueFan already do that -- Meebo has a significant amount of clout within the in-website add-on bar business with its popular Meebo Bar. The MiniBar will let you ...

Popular IM client Meebo has finally arrived on Blackberry. The app supports both touchscreen devices (like the Storm and Storm 2) and trackball models (like the Curve and Tour). The app ties in to your Meebo account, giving you in-app access to your buddy list, chat history, and even chats you had open before you stepped away from your desktop and signed in via your mobile. As CNet points out, ...

To kick off his keynote at SXSW, Evan Williams, Twitter's CEO, announced the @anywhere platform. This platform will allow site owners to integrate Twitter information and features directly into their sites. For example, a blog with @anywhere integration would allow a user to hover over the blogger's name to pop up a Twitter box where the user could see if he/she was following the blogger, ...

Meebo has finally released its long-awaited all-in-one native iPhone IM client [iTunes link], and it looks like the wait was worth it. Until now I would have said that Beejive IM held the title of best instant messaging client on the iPhone, but Meebo's speed and usability moves it solidly ahead of Beejive. Meebo maintains your list of connected instant messaging accounts on their server. You can ...

Zoho is adding to its line of web-based productivity apps with the launch of Zoho Chat 2.0. The service is a web-based instant messenger that lets you connect to multiple IM networks to chat simultaneously with your AOL, Windows Live, Yahoo!, Gogole, and other contacts. In other words, Zoho Chat is a lot like Meebo. But Meebo has some features that are still missing from Zoho Chat, including the ...

Meebo is a web-based instant messaging app. Users can sign into AOL, Windows Live, Google, Yahoo! and other instant messaging services from any web browser without downloading and installing any software. But today Meebo launched something new: A desktop notifier. Notice I didn't say desktop client. The new tool doesn't let you run Meebo outside of a web browser. What it does is sign you into your ...

Meebo is a web-based chat client that lets you keep up with your AIM, Yahoo!, Google Talk, and Windows Live Messenger contacts. Now Meebo has rolled out support for two more chat clients: Facebook and MySpace. The move makes sense, since Meebo's goal is to allow you to chat with all of your contacts in one space. But you still need to have a web browser open to use Meebo, which is why I ...

Used to be desktop applications were essential to getting the job done, whatever the job may have been, large or small. Now, with all the nimble web apps to choose from, the idea of firing up a huge application for a small task seems almost, well, unproductive and wasteful. Yeah, sure, no one is suggesting you do away with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Illustrator, Photoshop, Quickbooks and other ...

It may seem illogical to tie Meebo to a desktop app, but that's exactly what's going on here. Meebone uses Adobe AIR to bring Meebo's services to your desktop through a dedicated app, but it's still in beta. So if you're down to try it, keep in mind that you'll probably encounter some problems... just like we did. When attempting to login to AIM, Meebone was confused by a space in one of our ...

Do you have an idea for a widget or Facebook app? Maybe you either don't have the time or the full knowledge to actually make it? You reallllly want to make Wolverines vs. Dracula Part 8 for Facebook, and it frustrates you. Well be frustrated no more, in steps Zembly. As you know, companies have been formed around building Facebook apps, some of them have become wildly successful AND ...

It's hard to get by with just one chat client these days. Your contacts aren't likely to be limited to a single service, like Google Talk, MSN Live or AIM, so a multi-chat client is a must. Now the multi-chat experience is about to get a lot better for AIM's 27.8 million users, with the launch of AOL's Open AIM 2.0 initiative. Open AIM will aid the developers of clients like Meebo and eBuddy by ...

Tangler is a web service that lets anyone create a pretty nifty discussion forum. It takes just a few seconds to sign up and create a forum which you can then invite your friends to participate in. But the word forum doesn't really do justice to Tangler. Sure, you can create topics and respond to comments left by other users in each topic in the forum. But unlike old fashioned forums or ...

Meebo, the online instant messaging platform with support for multiple protocols, has just released the API for meebo rooms and meebo network. Meebo rooms are customizable spaces that integrate instant messaging with the sharing of web links and media, including videos and images. The meebo rooms API was created for large-scale implementations of meebo rooms for bigger community sites. The API ...

If your name is SpeedDate.com, here's a great idea for a PR stunt: Mix 8 celebrity bloggers and a SpeedDate.com session, bake at 400 degrees, record, and release the highlight reel on YouTube. That's exactly what happened in conjunction with Meebo to advertise Meebo's new SpeedDate app. Perhaps one of the funniest moments of the video is when Aaron Rowe of wired asks Justine of iJustine.TV, ...
