I've already shown you how to use Meebo within your web browser and I thought it was a good idea as it made using web messengers just that little more practical. Now you can use Meebo specifically for Firefox with a new official addon.

Meebo for Firefox integrates the web messenger well, you can show/ hide your contact list whenever you like, receive toast messages and things are a little more organised.

Although I am a Windows Live Messenger user I think it's tempting to combine my web browser and Messenger within one program. The only use I had for web messengers before was when the server went down, now Meebo has integrated its service into Firefox I believe it opens the door to the everyday user.

Nevertheless, after logging in a tab opens which will keep the main Meebo website open which is necessary to keep you logged onto the service. This means you still log into Meebo via the website and not through the addon. However the addon helps make it simpler and much easier to use.
