Picture of seth

The last couple of days have been pretty hectic in the meebo office! Everyone on the team has been incredibly busy, from working on meebo’s next features to interviewing potential future team members, and, of course, the occasional game of four-square. I’ve been trying to tie up a bunch of loose ends before an upcoming week of pretty heavy travel!

Tomorrow I’m off to Seattle, and while that’ll be a one-day hop, the very next day I head off to Boston, followed by a quick (and I’m sure quite chilly!) trip to Toronto (my first time…so excited!). In Boston I’ll be meeting students at Harvard and MIT, and also chatting with a couple of interesting startups. Toronto’s a whole different story. I’ll be attending a conference called Youth Power, which should be pretty interesting. They have panels with titles like “Urban Myths.” Cool. I’m pretty excited to hear what people have to say!

While I’m in Boston and Toronto, it’d be fantastic to meet anyone who may be in the area while I am! To that end, on Saturday, February 24th from 2-3pm I’m going to be hanging out in the Au Bon Pain in downtown Cambridge, right next to the Harvard T stop. Then, on Tuesday, February 27th from 7-8pm I’m going to be hanging out at the Starbucks at 155 Univeristy Avenue.

Hope to see you all there!

Seth

    w00t! i am a big meebo fan (it\’s now my preferred im client) and i hope to be able to make it to the toronto meetup!

  2. Derek Says:

    Right on. I hope to be able to make it to the Toronto meet. How will we recognize you? Will you be wearing a distinct hat? :)

  3. Alexa Says:

    While you’re in Seattle, the ORIGINAL Starbucks is a MUST! Check it out in Pike Place Market. There’s no place but the first place.

    PS When’s the next time you’re coming to Seattle. I’ve been waiting for a meebo meet-up in the Emerald City. [=

    it is very well

  5. Kat Says:

    Aw, stay in Seattle a while! you guys are fantastic. the weather’s been a bit hairy, but there’s lots to do and neat people!

  6. Simon Says:

    Hi Seth

    When you’re done interviewing your candidates will you be posting the answers to the questions on the jobs page? I’m only a mediocre Javascript programmer and would like to know whether my answers were even in the right ballpark

  7. mary Says:

    Hi!

    I wish I could go to Toronto but I’m afraid it is quite impossible since I’m Spanish… Anyway, have a nice visit to Seattle Seth and everybody!

  9. Mark Says:

    Just a tidbit of info, Boston should only be a couple of degrees warmer than TO. So make sure you bring your long johns left coaster! :) You might want to try having a Tim Hortons coffee while in TO instead of Seattle-based Starbucks. Glad to hear you’re crossing the border.

  10. Embher Says:

    Aw man. I’ll be in Boston in March. That’d be wicked to meet you. I’d be lost without Meebo.

  11. Lulu Says:

    Hey Seth.. I will try and make it to the meeting… but I do have to agree it’s a must have Tim Hortons coffee. Come on it’s not that cold, no need for long johns..lol.

  12. Rory Says:

    Actually Toronto is rather mild right now, it’s hovering around 0C. You’re going to miss the heinous cold snap we just broke out of. the weekend is suppose to be chilly, but tuesday should be too bad. I work just west of the city, but hopefully I can swing by downtown to see you next tuesday! I’ve been a meebo fan for 4 or 5 months now.

    Definately go for a Tim’s coffee while you’re here. It’s a lil more Canadian.

  13. Dell Says:

    Hey Seth,

    Just became a meebo fan recently and I’m so glad you’re hanging around boston, just right close to where I live, I hope to meet you and get few “hints” from you!

    c ya.

  14. Michael Says:

    I would have liked to make it to the Boston meet, but work is definitley preventing me from making it. I am somewhat new to Meebo, but I am a huge fan. I am never going to back to any of the other IM clients. I used to use Trillian all the time, but now Meebo is my prefered IM client since it is web based.

  15. Kaylah Says:

    heyy!!!! :]

  16. Allie Says:

    i haven’t found a web messenger that ‘floats my boat’ yet, but I am loving this!!! :D

  17. Tom Delmonte Says:

    have you guys ever thought of making your framework available to other developers?
    so they could use windows withing a web browser page to have various areas of the functionality of their site being held in different windows within a web page instead of separate pages?

    When I try to get the meebo page to load on internet explorer, every time it says “Error on Page.” So I have to use Netscape. Why is it not working lately? It used to work on Explorer fine. Thanks!
