Techcrunch reports that Meebo has launched a Flash-based live chat widget for websites.
Some may say that this is old news, but for Meebo this is a breakthrough: the chat doesn’t go through any of the IM networks. In the future, Meebo plans to integrate use of the widget with the Meebo accounts presently available, though these are used only for using the IM-networks component.
What are the implications of such a development? Meebo will offer a more secure IM service, in that there won’t be any Big Brother from the IM networks who can go through your IMs.
