By now, several of you have downloaded the Meebo MiniBar and started to check
in across the web. Today, we are pleased to introduce the latest feature on
Meebo: Quests. So, what is a Quest? A quest is a whole new way to discover
sites, unlock cool badges, and earn other types of rewards. We’ll [...]
**NOTE: Survey is now closed! THANKS for all who participated! For those that
did get to fill out the survey, someone will be in touch with you SOON!** At
Meebo, we’re always trying to learn more about you – our users – so we can keep

As a recruiter for Meebo, I’m often asked, “What are the culture and work
environment like there?” The best way to answer this question is by giving a
tour. We’ve been in downtown Mountain View for about four years. I think it’s
amazing how we’ve transformed the office space into such a warm, inviting
place. [...]
A check-in with the Meebo MiniBar could secure clean water for an entire school
in need Today is the last day to support Meebo’s effort to provide water for
those who need it the most. We’re making it really easy – for each check-in to
charitywater.org using the Meebo MiniBar (download here), Meebo will donate

Help Meebo fund a clean water project this Earth Day Earth Day (April 22) is
four short days away! Last week we kicked off an effort to raise money to
support charity:water and fund an entire clean, safe water project for a school

CentOS 4 to CentOS 5, and through each minor version up to 5.5. It has served
us well, but the distro is starting to show its age. [...]
Help bring safe and clean drinking water to those who need it. Install the new
Meebo MiniBar from here and check in to CharityWater.org. Bottled or tap? It’s
a common question that most of us take for granted, but is an unimaginable
choice for those in many places where clean water is scarce. While
three-quarters [...]
Did I say EVER? My only focus is to hire uber awesome people for an uber
awesome team at Meebo, isn’t that AWESOME? When I started in 2007, we were a
team of 23. The product kept growing, and Seth, Sandy, and Elaine said,
“We need more JavaScript Engineers”. So, I did what I knew [...]
We’re always looking for new ways to push the envelope here at Meebo. Recently
we had what we thought was a great idea: instead of trying to predict the
future, why don’t we look in to the past to integrate Meebo with messaging
systems that have worked for hundreds of years? In that vein we [...]
Meebo has had an exciting few days! A bunch of us have been in Austin, Texas
for the South by Southwest (SXSW) Interactive Conference where we launched our
latest Meebo iPhone app featuring web check-ins. We started the festivities on
Friday, March 11th 2011 with a Meebo VIP lounge at the W Hotel where SXSW [...]
