There are a number of things we just use on the web as a form of habit, you check your email, log onto airline sites etc and you go about your business. One of the site’s that i find I’m using more and more frequently is Meebo

Having different friends on different Instant Messengers is a pain, especially if you have to install the bulky software that lets you login and chat. A lot of these chat clients are loaded with advertisements and features you don’t really need plus everytime you login it seems to want to get you to download the latest huge update. Meebo really cuts out a lot of the messing involved with these clients. Their site is a one stop instant messaging shop! Simply either input your user/pass for the relevant chat service and your away in a hack, voila, all your contacts and chat windows in a browser window, not hogging your pc’s resources and runs like a dream!

You can also simply set up an account with meebo so when you sign in with one user/pass all the different Instant Messaging services will connect instantly and all your available contacts will be sitting, again, in on browser window! It couldn’t be simpler!

There are more features on the site, including chatrooms and blogging and such but i tend to just use it for hit-and-run style logging on to my IM. I would highly reccomend this site for surfers with a limited PC / Laptop that has seen better days.
