As Ajax spreads it wings, folks are using it to come up with cool new apps. Writely, was one. Latest – Meebo, a web-based IM client. Through Ajax, the folks at meebo were able to create a virtual application-like experience within a single web browsing window. meebo integrates a user’s accounts from AIM, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, and ICQ into a single buddy list that is automatically populated upon signing into the meebo web site. Sort of like Trillian/Adium, but in a browser window. The interface is so simple and elegant. It is still alpha so be kind. It as a few issues, so be kinder. But this is slowly turning browser into more than just a browser. Like Writely, Meebo is a three-person start-up. Elaine Wherry – the Ajax guru; Sandy Jen – Server side programming; and Seth Sternberg – jack of everything else. Mark Jen has an indepth look at this app.
Wow !! Great mention. Meebo rocks, except that the voice chat isn’t possible, as of now.
This one is really cool ,but is there really a need for it ?
To answer the first comment, voice is more difficult in a web browser for a couple of reasons. To do binary byte manipulation which is necessary for RTP, the language needs to be able to handle unsigned chars or something easily. Javascript is not well suited to this task. The other issue is access to the soundcard. Javascript does not natively allow you to have arbitrary access to soundcard samples.
Both of these problems can be solved by wrapping Java modules with Javascript interfaces but its ugly and requires the browser to have Java working which breaks Ajax.
To answer the second comment, I need it! My corporate firewall blocks me from using AIM. Now I have a nice web-based application that will tunnel through that! I’m going to test it tomorrow when I get to work and I’ll let you know.
someone ambitious should do an ajax virtual desktop complete with web browser, writely, meebo, and forgotten others
Hey Om, while the technology might be cool I see a very big issue with this kind of rolling up of identity be start-ups.
Here it is:
I imagine one of my kids saying, “Dad, I heard about a cool site called Meebo where I just have to give them my MSN, AOL, and Yahoo IDs and passwords and they’ll let me use their great new website. Can I use it?”
And I imagine myself saying “No. Haven’t you her about phishing? Whatever you do, NEVER give anyone your passwords.”
How does a start-up get over the trust issue?
Here is it 2009, Meebo is no longer a “startup” but somehow my yahoo messenger password was sold/stolen or hacked to send spam yahoo messenger spam. I use meebo exclusively, mostly from Debian machines though occasionally from xp or vista.
Trust is always an issue when you hand some website your password. Meebo may not be directly at fault, but I won’t be using meebo anymore.
Even if not for the sold/stolen or hacked password issue…each time I sign in the pop-over ads, some with audio on meebo are increasingly more shrill and obnoxious on a daily basis.
Now I DO understand that programmers do not work for free, and it costs money to host a website so if it’s your model to sell ads the burden is on you to make sure they are annoying enough to get someone’s attention and yet unobtrusive enough to prevent functionality and thus alienating your visitors.
Google Next.
Already the gmail client(used by google employees) have embedded chat. I think in a few more months they will be coming up with full fledged embedded googletalk in their Gbrowser.
An AJAX Office Suite makes sense as that allows you to store your documents on the server with web based access/editing from any desktop ,but a AJAX IM ?? . I hate technology for the sake of technology so i am standing by my previous comment !.
But said all these i have to say thats a nice piece of engineering and wish them good luck!
ok, so Om did you pick this up off of Mark Jen’s blog?
If so, why not the link back to it for credit?
nope, this was dropped in my inbox by one of the friends close to the company. i checked it out and posted. did not even know that mark had a link on his site.
Ok, just checking. This is why blogs rock. I can ask a question, you answer, it’s all right here.
Just tested the service through my corporate firewall (I don’t know what we use here but its annoying) and things work fine! This is the first time I’ve been able to get AIM inside my corporate island, which just rocks.
In the same vein as an AJAX Office, don’t forget about Zimbra.
Meebo is great, but it’s going completely in the wrong direction. A good feature of an IM, but IM is moving towards many different forms of graphics (AV, VoIM, Breeze and Webex-type apps), and Meebo is stuck in the background, holding onto the idea that text chat is the future (with the application of AJAX and universal accessibility of course). Good idea, but wrong direction.
Call me a party pooper, but personally I’m not too fond of giving away my passwords to a third party.
maz hit the nail on the wall. I woud’nt trust giving my IM passwords to them. Heck, if I created a service like that, i’d be snooping around people’s emails. 🙂
While AJAX has been great with gmail and such web2 mashups, what we really need is user-friendly mobile computing. If the problem of user-interfaces for this were solved, we would really see a billion of these mobile computers, with everyone using verious software applications from these mobile friendly edge devices. Can AJAX be adopted to solve the wireless user-interface problem ?

ya so here’s what it’s prolly frequently used by… bored school girls (me, which explains why im writing this) whose schools have blocked aim and we can’t figure out the right ports to use to proxy or we do and it cuts us off after 3 minutes so we found meebo and then our school blocked that too… so… anyone know of something similair or how to get around St. Bernard all together?? aside from a free proxy website like guardster because they’re blocking that too
have you tried www5.meebo.com or placing random numbers by www that should get past it if the school blocks the url
doesnt work still
needs an address that will stop the schools from realising what iy is!!
nada
yeah…..is there any other sort of program/website that is similar to this??my school filter still blocks out the meebo site under the definition “chat”. if anyone finds something, email it to me with “meebo alt” in the subect line…..
I think meebo is great! It’s a really cool and useful implementation of AJAX, and it’s simple in scope, which is elegant.
However, I wonder if they’ve found a cool way around a problem that may face my company (we’re involved in pay-for-IM stuff). All the IM network user agreements have provisions against this kind of thing. Google’s agreement is the nicest, but AOL and Yahoo (or maybe it was MSN) are pretty restrictive.
Of course, with $3-4M in funding this week and with the friends that come with that money, meebo should have a better time working with the IM biggies to work out any problems.
We hope to get past similar problems, but ours is a little deeper, because we turn IMing into pure commerce, which has traditionally been a no-no (in fact, the IM user agreements are very specific about not even using IM for business).
We’re not lawyers, but we figure this language is really more about the IM network providers not wanting any liability for business interruption (and not so much that they just don’t want IM used for business in some general sense).

if ur skool blocks meebo cuz of “web chat” jus type in www(random number).meebo.com nd it’ll work
ex: www5.meebo.com
My school has blocked all the different ports on the network. We can’t get to meebo using the different numbers. is there any other way? The school has blocked everything except java from what we can tell.
hey can the guy who made this site make it unblockable to the school firewalls, email me at ken-boi@hotmail.co.uk an plz tell me cus skool is so crap i wanna be able to go on my msn,

i tried that 216.129.112.98 port and it did work 4 a whil & then got turned off. any mor ideas?
Is Meebo service legal? Do Meebo has the right to provide service owned by others (MSN, YM)?
I think Meebo will take Yahoo’s revenue from advertisement. Is it legally OK?
The system needs more ways to get on messenger

Mona Soni
hey guys – i noticed a number of comment above about meebo being blocked at a bunch of sites. we noticed this too, but also noticed a lot of meebo users were relying on third party proxies to get around the blocks. that’s not very safe as proxies are ripe for phishing attacks, conversation sniffing, etc. as a result, we put out a little program (the meebo repeater) so that users can set up their own (safe) port forwarder at home. the link is here http://blog.meebo.com/?page_id=140. hope this helps! seth
do u have more codes for ”me to have just skool has blocked it
tthey have blocked
69.36.226.154
and
216.129.112.98

Almost the same thing, only more features and better interface.
If u can’t get Meebo to work, I definately recommend you try eBuddy.
No school blocks Google as much as I know so try this:

Any web proxy for msn?
Guys if you have a home PC that’s constantly connected to the internet, follow these steps
http://blakgeek.blogspot.com/2006/12/staying-in-touch.html
If not go to http://www.proxz.com and get a proxy server that works. Warning. It’s better to use the steps at the site I posted below, because it means everything you do while at work or school will be ENCRYPTED. If you just use a proxy server, they can filter all of the packets you send and receive and know exactly what you’re doing — and fire you.
HHHHEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPP ME FIND A PROXY. MY SCHOOL ALMOST BLOCK EVERY SINGLE ONE
This Ajax based IMs are great. On the Internet Censorhip wiki at http://en.cship.org/wiki/Instant_Messenger there is a list with about 15 different services like Meebo and the others. They are perfect to bypass the filters in schools.
regards,
nettomalk
I work for a very know computer company and I’ve tried every single IP in this web and none works, please help I need to connect to MSN
i think iloveim is better than meebo
If you are behind a firewall that blocks Meebo, download UltraSurf from a non-restricted connection. Copy UltraSurf to your thumb-drive. Open the UltraSurf executable and enjoy your unfiltered browsing.
Lots of other web(ajax-based) IMs have come up after Meebo.
FYI: WeBuzz.IM ( http://webuzz.im/ ) is another new web instant messenger service for Gtalk, MSN, Yahoo, AIM, ICQ, Facebook Chat, XMPP/Jabber.
