Pibb.com - Chat and Forums in One

Pibb combines forums and iming into one web application. You can chat in real time with anyone on a topic that´s already been created, or you can create a group discussion. Chats can be public or private, and they are automatically saved each time, so that you don´t have to worry about logging off and losing an important part of a conversation. It´s easy to log in using your Open ID, or creating a new one specifically for Pibb. It´s easy to chat in multiple groups and conversations at the same time through the use of tabs for each conversation. You can also thread discussions to other chats if you suddenly want to have a private conversation or think the topic at hand is worth its own specific conversation. If you are reading an old post and want to talk about it some more with one of the participants, you can check out who´s online that´s ever participated in the thread and can chat with them individually.

“Pibb puts you in charge of your online communications. Combining the convenience of instant messaging, the familiarity of forums, and power of blogs in one browser window, Pibb allows you to communicate online the way you always wanted to. Start dialogs with friends or entire channels with the click of a button. All communications are automatically and securely stored, no need to worry about accidentally closing a window and losing that important conversation again.”

For people who don´t use an im client that allows them to save their conversations, this is useful. It also brings more life to forums by making it more interactive.

Most iming clients automatically save your conversations anyway, so that is nothing new. How will they compete with Tangler that makes it easier to search for topics because of better organization, already has a lot of members signed up, and allows you to share any type of media?
