Meebo - A live chat widget

This week we are featuring Deb Vang, our new online advisor, and how we have incorporated a live chat widget into the online advisor webpage. This widget indicates to the enduser when you are on or offline. If you are online, they can start an instant chat with you.

Any online instructor could replicate this either on a department webpage, or D2L to host live chats in an area students visit often.

You simply set up a free account at meebo.com and follow the "get started" instructions. Within minutes, you'll have created your own widget.


Here's what Deb's looks like:
