When Meebo announced getting bought out my response was:
"Nice, generic and overenthusiastic post-acquisition blog post. They'll likely be shutdown within a few months."
Turns out i was off by a few months in my prediction. I still don't understand what Google acquired through this purchase.
- citricsquid 14y ago> NOTE: The Meebo Bar will continue to be available to site publishers and will see continued improvements and new features in the weeks and months ahead. Answers your question, doesn't it? Google acquired them for the Meebo bar; I would put money on it being acquired to become google+ified. Edit: seems I was incorrect and they were acquired for the team. Disregard this comment.
- sakopov 14y agoBut you see that was my point. I don't think there is a team or a good product to acquire here. It hardly compares to previous Google's acquisitions.
