feature request: jabber plugin modification for meebo me?
Posted: Mon Jan 29, 2007 4:49 pm
probably you all know the meebo me service, which lets visitors of your homepage directly IM you through a special widget on your site. since it's xmpp based, it can be used with every jabber client, so you don't have to be logged in the meebo webinterface.
but: the widget sends authorisation requests for every visitor on your page. the jabber plugin meebo uses is set so that it automatically accepts the requests so you are not annoyed by houndreds them. but when you use a standard jabber client, all the requests get thruogh, which makes it rather unusable (or annoying, depending on how many people visit your site).
so how about adding a modified meebo me option to Adium's account setup (like the ones for Google Talk and Live Journal) that uses the same preferences than the meebo webclient (which is also based on gaim), so meebo me gets usable with Adium?
p.s.: i'm sure the meebo guys could have realized the feature a little trickier, so you don't have to bother with all the requests when you are using a standalone client. hopefully they change it in the future.
