Meebo integrates IM on any site
Cory Bergman August 3rd, 2006
Oooh, this is cool. Meebo allows web publishers to integrate an instant messaging widget on their sites. “As people go onto that page, I can see them, so I know in real-time who’s on my page,” said Seth Sternberg, CEO and co-founder. “And I can talk to them in real-time. Literally, we’ve embedded instant messaging into web pages.”

This reminds me of software called Groopz that’s been around for a couple of years. Its primary use is that it puts a sales person in the browsing experience. “Hello, my name’s Terry. May I help you?” Kind of shocking when it happens, but it’s smart business. Wouldn’t it be fun if anchors could pop into the web experience from time-to-time?

we had an anchor around here that i’ve mentioned from time to time. the first comeback out of anyone’s mouth when i mentioned this icon of detroit tv was that he was a drunk.
now him popping into someone’s web experience would be cool…most of the others would simply put me to sleep.
