You want popularity not emptysville because the members are to busy to post due to Meebo Chat. |
Well, it's not on the front page, it's basically your instant messenger, except pasted onto your profile. Also, the chat only works if the user is online on Meebo. The main difference between this and a shoutbox is that a shoutbox is used by everyone, on one page and is always on. This messenger system is used by a few on a few thousand different pages, so there is no main focus of chat or one big chatroom. So saying this reduces posts is saying all IMs in general reduce posts because they are separate programs that allow conversation between friends.
