threadsy aims to pull all of your online communications together into a simpler, more integrated experience. In line with this vision, we’re excited to announce integration with Meebo’s “Meebo Bar”. An improved chat experience and broad support for all major IM services have been some of the top requests we’ve had in our feedback forum, and we think the Meebo Bar is a big step forward.

The Meebo Bar lets threadsy users access all major chat services while using threadsy including:

• AIM
• Yahoo Messenger
• Facebook Chat
• MSN Messenger
• Myspace IM
• Google Talk
• and many others

The Meebo Bar now occupies the footer of the main threadsy messages view. It features visual and audial notifications whenever you receive new chat messages and allows multiple chat windows at the same time, features requested by several users. Each chat session will appear in a separate window over your message list.

To use the Meebo bar, you must sign up for meebo and add your chat accounts to it. Just click the bar and you’ll be prompted to sign up and add your chat accounts in the popup window. To add other types of chat accounts not listed in the popup, click the ‘pop out to meebo.com’ button and you can add them there under the ’sign on to more accounts’ link. Once you’re set up, you’ll have quick access to all your chat services in one place.

Note that since the Meebo Bar supports Google Talk, we removed the top ‘chat’ tab.

OK, time to start chatting about those huge weekend plans…
