Meebo is not the most well-known Instant Messaging on this side of the Atlantic. However, this has not prevented Google to open up his portfolio to the acquisition. The two partners are indeed to formalize the redemption. No price was disclosed, but it is rumored in the authorized financial community that it would be around $ 100 million. If such a sum is what surprised, you know that Meebo has nothing of a small new on the Web since the service has more than seven years.
Its main characteristic is to allow its subscribers to manage multiple instant messaging protocols in the same window, without having to resort to the software installation. But most importantly, it allows them to interact together and share any Web page on social networks such as Facebook or Twitter, simply by clicking on the famous Meebo bar. There, no need to install since the bar in question is integrated in the Web pages that appear. As mentioned above, this service is not used in France. On the other hand, it prides itself on to reach an American surfer on two. This redemption priori aims to enhance Google +. But Android should also benefit indirectly.
