In a post on its blog, messaging service Meebo has announced that it is being acquired by Google. Meebo is a social platform connecting users with other users through the internet. Their flagship product is the MeeboBar.
Signed by the Meebo team, the blog post say, “For more than seven years we’ve been helping publishers find deeper relationships with their users and to make their sites more social and engaging. Together with Google, we’re super jazzed to roll up our sleeves and get cracking on even bigger and better ways to help users and website owners alike. We’ve had a blast building Meebo so far and we’re really excited to start the next leg of our journey.
The terms and structure of the deal are not yet known. Last month All Things D gave Meebo a price tag of around $100M.
