Google Buys Meebo For $100M by yawatide(f): 4:36pm On Jun 18, 2012
Meebo, the chat and publishers tools company that Google acquired for roughly $100 million, is going to see most of its products shut down next month. That includes Meebo Messenger, the sharing widgets and mobile apps.

The one major product that will keep running is that Meebo Bar. (Yes, that one.) Haters aside, Meebo Bar does actually generate some meaningful revenue for publishers, but it sometimes irks visitors with ads that pop up from the bottom, left-hand side of the page. All of the products, except for the bar, will go down on July 11.
Also, meebo messenger will shut down beginning July 11

Nairaland is yet to reach the 5th stage of development
...........therefore, i dont advise seun to sell it, or be thinking of selling it. if he does so, it would attract token amount of naira.

zangiff: Too much money for big G..it remains operamini now
Th other day I received an alert that Google has bought over Quickoffice - d'you guys know that company that makes apps for smartphones, yeah, that is it. Now they bought meebo. Facebook bought snaptu and rendered it useless and unusable for guys. I'm putting out news now! I go swear for anybody wey dey try to buy opera mini, either partly or wholly, in order to destroy it and/or start to sell the opera application instead of making it free as it has hitherto been, or even trying to make guys to pay for accessing any of its services with the aim of making money thereof, I hereby curse.

How do you know? I also had as of 2006/2007 I think, seun wanted to sell Nairaland for 25bill..... Can you imagine? Kai, too pricey

The owners of Kalahari wanted to buy nairaland for that price but he refused.

Seun saying he wanted to sell nairaland for 25billion was just another way of saying he didn't want to sell it. Remember that was during the Soluso's 25Billion bank recapitalization. Seun said he wanted to open his own bank.
Re: Google Buys Meebo For $100M by werthy(m): 11:28am On Jun 19, 2012

Re: Google Buys Meebo For $100M by freshmoney(m): 12:18pm On Jun 19, 2012
I suppose Seun is reeling from laughter now while reclining on the plushy sofa and viewing the abysmal debate from nairalanders on his MONEY. Kai to hell with poverty grin Please keep debating on someone else's money cheesy
