Sorry. Looks like you put a lot of time and energy into this video, but although I like Meebo, I'm not too crazy about this promo. The little quarky things that the girls were doing in time to the music were really uncoordinated and simply made no sense. In what way did this "promotional" video, promote Meebo?
It's a parody of the "smelly couch" volkswagen ad that was on tv a few years back. Meebo is an instant messaging website, hence them picking up a smiley.
pyrotim25... partly right. Meebo uses Gaim libraries (libgaim), which anybody can use since it's open source. They might be beginning to stray away from it, since the Gaim devs have been lazy lately.
dude, do not bash the elite force that is meebo. There isn't a cooler group of people anywhere. I read their blogs everyday. From my basement office. With a phone that doesn't ring. They have become my best friends. Whether they know it or not. Do no harm!
people use Meebo instead of yahoo for reasons that its easier to keep all your buddies in one buddy list this is simple for people like me who dont like downloading stuff like gaim which deserves a lot of credit cause if i remember corectly gaim gave Meebo their code and thats what Meebo was based off of sorry if im not giving correct information on the whole Gaim thing but im not in the mood to check my sources at the second
today's advertisement was brought to you by the letter "H", for "homage."
paying homage to an pre-existing item of media is a perfectly valid method of constructing your own item of media. parodies and satire employ this often.
meebo, you guys are awesome. keep it up and put the naysayers on /ignore.
Sandy is not ugly or cold, you are probably just prejudiced. Also, meebo does have a business model, it says so in one of their blogs.
The ad wasn't great, I'll admit, but it does have a funny message at the end. If I was any decent at C++, and lived in America, and near Mountain View, I would work in a flash.
guys at meebo, take the hint from all the comments here, positive or negative. don't quit yor day jobs. you guys are ok as developers of the web, but sadly not as developers of ads. leave that to the pros. you could ask friends in the advertising business to make you ads even if you guys have little or no budget at all. seriously, stick to what you guys are really good at. peace!
considering the fact that your wasting your oh so "precious" time posting here thats shows you watched the commercial and are thinking about it and hell you might even complain to someone about it so shut the hell up because its just a commercial and it did what its supposed to, advertise the company and make people remember the commercial.
Don't listen to them, Elaine and Sandy. They prefer dolled up superPlasticStars Barbie wanna be with the intelligence and warmth of a frozen cat. You two are plenty attractive. When I worked at Apple, I did a small "ad campaign" for my group that had "Mac OS X, Drivers Wanted" with the VW sign redone as an X inside a circle. I did one that said "Got X?", but I didn't know that "X" also referred to a drug. Wow. That was embarrasing.
what they need is some

they stole someone else's idea (see VW "Sunday Afternoon" superbowl spot) and added nothing to it. That should tell you a lot.
lcmedia 5 years ago
If you had a brain you would check before saying that, their very own homepage says it was based on the VW add.
They have not claimed to be advertising "experts" - it was more just fun.
They do quite well just from word of mouth... not sure how you and your sorry ass compares. maybe there's a bit of jealousy there? ;) lol
