[Web4lib] Meebo

[Marcie Pierson]

Meebo does not allow concurrent logins. Logging in at a second computer will log off the first computer.

Here's a related problem from my library - does anyone know for sure (rather
than anecdotally) if Meebo allows multiple logins?  We have our IM service
staffed from two desks concurrently, and we've had persistent problems with
Meebo logging one location off, much to the surprise of the other.

Thanks,
Elizabeth
