MeetMe is just a conference room. You assign an extension to it, and anyone that calls that extension will get put in the MeetMe room. The more the merrier, although more than 20 users with all of them able to talk is probably not going to work well. MeetMe is a built-in application in Asterisk.
FindMeFollowMe is just a concept. A marketing term. It is the idea that your extension number is associated with multiple end points (desk, cell, etc). How FMFM actually works is arbitrary, as there is no set standard. The FMFM in FreePBX is a thoughtful design, and seems to work fairly well. YMMV Hope that helps!
