Yahoo creates Pingbox rivals Google’s chatback
Yahoo recently released PingBox…
a new application that once embedded into your blog, website or social network page, lets visitors IM you anonymously (or they can identify themselves) without needing to download or even sign into Yahoo! Messenger. The good news is you’re anonymous too; visitors to your page never see your Yahoo! ID. Pingbox is great for giving your site/page/profile visitors a quick way to chat with you.
Chat privately with visitors on your social network profiles, blog, or website through Yahoo! Messenger
It’s just like Google’s Chatback which i already have installed here in my blog (check my sidebar).
To be able to use pingbox, you need to upgrade to Yahoo’s latest messenger release.. Yahoo Messenger 9. Then create your own pingbox here.

For me, this is one of the bestest features introduced by Yahoo!. It looks amazing on my site. And members love it. I really find it very convenient and fun to use.
I hope we see more features soon to integrate it further with a site so that logged in member’s username can automatically be filled in the “nickname” field.
Also this has a compatibility issue with Google Chrome which should be fixed asap.
Thank you
