Meebo announced today that it is launching an API for its Meebo Rooms service. The API will allow the automated creation and embedding of chat rooms at the server level. Rooms previously had to be set up by hand on the Meebo site. "For example, social networks can embed a chat room on every 'group' page, entertainment companies can have live community groups for each artist or show, and blog platforms can embed a chat room in the 'comments' of every post, seamlessly," says Meebo, describing possible use cases on the API page.
