Use Aim In AOL Webmail

After a long wait, AOL finally took the wraps off its AIM Webmail product. Now Aim is integrated into the webmail site. Meaning you no longer need Aim Express anymore. Aim Express hardly ever works and has brought numerous amounts of complaints to this site as well as AOL’s message boards. So for all you people who say Aim Express doesn’t work, please try beta.webmail.aol.com instead.

AIM looks pretty plain so far. There is support for tabbed IMs and buddyicons on the side. However, friendly names, changing icons, and viewing buddy info is missing in this release. I believe atleast buddy info should be there, its just going to be a link to a buddy info pageThey are expected to be added in the upcomming Beta Builds.
