chat with me

If I'm currently on-line anywhere in the world, you can chat with me here.

Quite a while ago I became a huge fan of meebo. With meebo, you can keep in touch with friends on any IM network (AIM, Yahoo!, MSN, Google Talk and Gmail, MySpace IM, Facebook Chat, and more!). The best part of meebo is that it's a multi-protocal IM client that has no downloads or installs required, and it's free!

Why I love meebo so much...
I travel and consult to many companies throughout the world and many of these companies either don't allow me to plug into their networks, install instant messaging clients on their computers or block the ports required to use instant messaging applications. That's where meebo comes in. I can get onto any computer and simply go to meebo.com which is a standard web site and log in to my account and have access to all my IM accounts from one screen. Brilliant!

That's not to say I use meebo all the time. On my personal computer I use Adium, a fantastic multi-protocol client for Mac. But when I'm at a client site without full, open access to all my IM accounts, meebo saves the day.

Additionally, meebo provides this handy widget (to the right) that will allow you to chat with me no matter where I am when I'm logged into meebo or through Adium. Thanks to a this guy, I was able to log into my meebo account via Adium so I don't need to keep my browser open all the time.
