More Info: Meebo

CEO: Seth Sternberg

Investors: Sequoia, Draper Fisher Jurvetson.

Analysis:
One of the leading web-based IM platforms. Meebo.com has about 1.7 million US uniques per month (per Compete), with huge engagement-per-user (many users open the window and keep it open all day). The company has also recently launched embeddable, topic-specific chat rooms.

Meebo has only recently begun focusing on revenue, but its site offers a very immersive advertising opportunity. The Meebo rooms and IM logins should also benefit from a strong network effect.
