You may have seen the meebo bar on some sites, with a meebo powered chat.
Really its simple now that they have the meebo bar beta. Its just for your site and this is how you make one and add it to your site.
This would be ideal for:
So first you go to bar.meebo.com and register a meebo account. If you already have an existing meebo account, you can use that.
You will be given a code like
On meebo it tells you to place this tag right under your body. Since you are using MyBB not a regular site, you don't have a <body> tag that you can use, you have to add it to the top of the template "Header" If you want everyone to see it that is. If you only want members to see it, add it to the top of the header_welcomeblock_member template. Then it again tells you to add the code
in front of you </body> tag. Again you can't do this. So instead just add it to the last line of your footer template.
Then tada! Users on your site can now chat using their Meebo id;s.
I have added this and i will add later on how to add that other blue one when i remember its name
Sadly though it doesn't let you be on meebo and on your site at the same time.
Holy... that was a fast move thanks xD

This would be ideal for:
- Sites on limited bandwidth (That can't host a shoutbox
- Meebo Fanatics
- Awesome people

var args = arguments;
if (!document.body) { return setTimeout(function(){ args.callee.apply(this, args) }, 100); }
var d=document, b=d.body, m=b.insertBefore(d.createElement('div'), b.firstChild); s=d.createElement('script');
m.id='meebo'; m.style.display='none'; m.innerHTML='<iframe id="meebo-iframe"></iframe>';
