Tip van LifeHacker en heel leuk voor wie van chatten houdt en met Firefox werkt: Meebo, de chat-client die in je zijbalk leeft en die je vanop het even welk platofrm toelaat je Instant Messenging gereedschap te gebruiken. Is als extension te installeren.

Windows/Mac/Linux (Firefox): Web-based instant messaging service Meebo connects to any and every IM chat client you can shake an avatar at, and now the popular in-browser chat application integrates tightly with your Firefox sidebar with the new Meebo Firefox extension. The extension supports visual IM notifications and drag and drop link and image sharing directly from web sites in addition to other already existing Meebo features—including file sharing. There really aren’t any robust, fully cross-platform chat applications out there (though there are a few great platform-specific apps), but with this new Firefox extension, Meebo is getting close.
