Meebo now has a Firefox Extension that lets you add Meebo instant messenger in the left sidebar of your Firefox browser. This is the Meebo new added feature after the release of Meebo File Transfer option.

Tips to get started from Meebo Blog:

• Click on the meebo icon in your navigation bar up top to toggle the sidebar.
• You can pop out IM messages using the icon in the IM toolbar and they’ll float over Firefox while you browse.
• The sidebar will update you on recent IM activity.
• Want to add/remove buddies? Use the buddylist to your right.
• At the moment you’ll need to keep the meebo tab open.

Install Meebo Firefox Extension and enjoy the fun of instant messaging services right from your Firefox browser. You can download Meebo Firefox Extension from
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/5700.

After you install, you can either sign in to accounts individually or sign in to your Meebo account, which holds all of your different account credentials so you can sign in to multiple IM accounts at once.

Once connected, you’ve got a simple contact management pane in the sidebar that you can view or collapse easily. You can even drag web content onto contact names to automatically open a new IM and share the link or image. In the meantime, your IM conversations all take place inside a Meebo tab, which is automatically opened when you sign in. The Meebo extension is free, should work wherever Firefox does. I know there are tons of Meebo fans out there, so let us know how the new extension is working out for you in the comments.
