Avatar Chat Messenger

Our Rating: (Very Good)

Weblin is a unique chat messenger that allows you to see which other people are on the same website you are on. Each user is represented by a custom avatar along the bottom of the browser window, and you can communicate with other users via chat balloon, chat room or private chat. The program works similar to standard Instant Messengers, allowing you to maintain a list of friends, be notified when they come online and so on. Weblin automatically integrates with Internet Explorer and Firefox. At the time of this review, the majority of users were in Germany and few were found on US sites, however that will probably change once the program becomes more widely used.
