A new service has just launched which enables you to chat with your website visitors using your own regular instant messaging account called Aimboo. {srsly how do they come with these names?}

The supported IM services are MSN, Yahoo, GoogleTalk, Jabber and AIM. All you need to do is signup, groan I know, add your IM details then embed a small piece of HTML on your blog or website and start chatting with your site visitors.

This service reminds me of Plugoo which I used on this site at point of time but it kept kicking the visitor off every time they reloaded a page. If someone tries this and it works any different let me know.

No Flash or Java required and you can chat with an unlimited amount of visitors, plugoo was flash based. This might work well with those MySpace fanatics.
