Meebo Instant Messaging on iPhone
Monday, July 23rd, 2007 at 4:00 PM - by John Martellaro
Meebo is another IM agent that works just fine on an Apple iPhone, even though it’s not yet tailored for the iPhone’s Safari. It also works just fine on EDGE, according to Kevin Hoffman at .Net Journal.
"It takes a few seconds to get signed in, but once you’re in, it’s actually quite nice. Single-click a buddy to open a chat window with them. Double-tap the blue screen region to zoom out, then you can double-tap the newly opened buddy window to zoom into that region. Once you’re zoomed in there you can use the on-screen keyboard (I switch to landscape mode for this because the keys are slightly wider in landscape mode). click the "Go" button to send your text," Mr. Hoffman reported.
Even though Meebo is apparently not tuned to Safari on iPhone, it still works fine, according to the author.
The Mebo Website has a section that discusses privacy and security when using their system.
Previously, iPO noted two other IM offerings for the iPhone, JiveTalk and FlickM.
