AIM aims for developers

AOL was set to announce on Monday that it is opening up its AIM Software Development Kit to Linux, Mac OS X and Pocket PC developers. In addition, the company is providing the ability for developers to build customized plug-ins and other software that work with AOL's location-based services, PC-to-PC voice calling functionality and multi-party voice chat.

Developers also will be able to create customized AIM Bots, opt-in screen names which help users send pictures or podcasts to their blogs, among other activities. More information on the Open AIM initiative is at developer.aim.com.

AOL Doesn't even support MAC

AOL doesn't even support MAC OS. They, starting on a MAC platform, dumped us! I had to quit AOL because it quit running on my MAC - and now, they want us back? Who can trust them?
