Meebo Me

I had heard about this a while ago, but I never got into trying it out. And I have to say that I'm very amazed.

It is a widget you can embed on any Webpage, and if you're logged in at Meebo you can chat with any user that logs into your page, and they can chat back with you.

When a user logs into the page, he can set the username they want and then chat with you. This is what you would see in Meebo's page.


By the way, if you haven't tried Meebo, you should do it right now. You can log into your Google Talk, Yahoo! Messenger, MSN/Windows Live Messenger and AIM accounts in the same page and at the same time.

Skype joins the Google Pack?

Yep. It's strange. I have no idea since when this is happening, but Google is promoting the use of Skype when you download the Google Pack (A free collection of essential software).

Bearing in mind that Google has its own voice communication product (Google Talk) it seems like an odd strategy to promote your main competitor's product. But they have hinted this behaviour. Check out a post from the Google Talk Official Blog that is called Talking with Skype

Gmail Chat belongs to All Mail?

Certainly not.

Let's be clear, I love Gmail Chat... BUT... I just clicked All Mail and I see all my chats there... That's not cool... That's not even a nice feature... It's 'All Mail', it doesn't say chat there... Damn it...
