DISQUS

Ian Swanson · 1 year ago

This Meebo strategy is exactly the same as Userplane.

Except, Userplane launched revshare over a year ago, deeper APIs, and is a top 30 ad network already paying developers and publishers huge payouts.

I like the Meebo product, but am curious to see if they can actually generate revenue for their partners.

Nick - you pointed out the recent Userplane partnerships with Converdge and Kickapps, but many do not realize that they have chat/IM product on close to 300,000 social websites.

Meebo is creating a ton of noise and it will be interesting if they can pull any business from Userplane.

My very bias opinion believes that publishers will go to where the deeper integration and money is - Userplane

(disclaimer: I use to work at Userplane - However, I do think the the Meebo product is good)
