Hab.la is a chat application that allows blog and website owners to chat with their site visitors. Users, such as web-business owners, librarians, and bloggers, can turn to this tool to keep in touch with and monitor the progress of visitors exploring their site. To use this tool, users need to follow three steps: sign up for an account, add Hab.la to any Jabber client, and add Hab.la to the website or blog. This tool is compatible with all major browsers, Jabber clients, and websites that support JavaScript, and allows users to chat with visitors right from their own buddy list. Hab.la is customizable, as it allows for users to change the look at feel of their widget.
