Have You Seen Our Meebo Bar?

A few days ago we released a fun little feature we hope you'll fall in love with.
It’s the new Meebo toolbar. The toolbar lives at the very bottom of your screen, fixed to the bottom of the browser window. You should see it the next time you visit Aurora Nights.
The Meebo Bar makes it easy for you to:
  • Share an article with your friends by email, Facebook, Twitter or Yahoo.
  • Shortcut over to see Our Latest Contests and participate in the Aurora Nights Fan Page over on Facebook.
  • You can chat! You can login to your Facebook Chat, Meebo chat, Google Chat, AIM, or any other instant messenger you use. So you can chat with your friends and coworkers and fellow lensmasters without leaving Squidoo. Imagine working on lenses together this way, getting real time, instant feedback from your friends… Just a thought.
  • You can also see real time notes and mini-updates, from Aurora Nights to you, right on the Meebo Bar.





Meebo's Share Dock pops out when you drag a piece of content on an enabled site.
Next, a few more logistics and details to know:
  • No, the Meebo chatbar won’t slow down loading of your pages one bit. It won’t affect performance at all. Just so you know.
  • Our friends over at Meebo tell us the chatbar really increases page views… meaning, the number of people who see and share your articles. That’s never a bad thing!
  • Links clicked open in new tabs.
  • If you don’t feel like using the Meebo Bar, you can minimize it easily.
  • Meebo will run popular ads in the toolbar from time to time. They’ll be non-invasive and easy to close, and will always contain high-quality sponsored content.
We’re adding this feature as part of a trial period right now, so we’d love to hear what you think, and how you use the Meebo Bar. Giants have already tested this out for us, but if you see any bugs, please let us know by clicking on our Feedback Tab.
