- Google acquired Meebo for roughly $100 million, but shut down most of its products, including Meebo Messenger, the sharing widgets and mobile apps.
- Meebo’s sale to Google was a graceful exit for a team that is well-regarded in the Valley, but didn’t find the momentum it needed to be a sustainable, independent platform.
