Weblin is a new way to interact in the world of web 2.0. After registration you create a small 2D avatar which travels with you as you surf the web. The avatars can look like real people, fantasy figures and much more and show up at the bottom of the browser’s screen, where you can start chatting and interacting with other visitors on the same page (if they have weblin).

The creators of weblin are based in Germany, however, the website and the controls are available in multiple languages – including chat room localization.
As weblin is still in beta, the service is only available to Windows users, but there is a weblin.lite version for the rest of us.
