Yeah.. it's an odd, but wholly not uncommon, posture.

After all, most of these sites including MacRumors, AppleInsider, and iPhoneFAQ provide continuous publicity for Apple and their products. Discouraging such is detrimental to Apple.

I'm assuming it's just something they have no interest in enforcing unless the site is negatively affecting or representing them.

AppleInsider and Macrumors have been around so long... clearly they're not interested.

History has proven otherwise in similair cases with sites that have been around for 10 yrs and such..

This is pretty cool.

Doesn't fit the screen properly, but still looks good.. offers a bit more expansive weather info (including radar) than the normal iPhone widget.

Is meebo safe from a security perspective?

I mean, you're basically giving your IM account password (which often can be the same as mail accounts) to those people.

As (un)safe as anything online where you give your password really Smiley
