While much of AIM 6.5's functionality mirrors past releases, the multitude of personalization options, bold color palates and multimedia options are decidedly more modern and within reach for a new generation of AIM users.
- A laundry load of new ways to personalize your AIM brings a new attitude to an old messenger.
- Despite a splash of new color, not much difference between previous release.
From random thoughts to current moods, users can now broadcast what’s on their mind with the easy-to-use status message.
For the IMer on the go, a more thorough integration of IM-to-cell phone technology abounds in this latest version.
New software options allow users to personalize their buddy lists and IMs and to challenge friends to IM games.
- Standard features including AIM Pages, Plaxo, voice/video chat, and picture/file sharing are also packaged in Version 6.5.
Taking notes from the social networking playbook paired with a fresh splash of color, the new AIM 6.5 yields a bold new vision for the future of instant messaging.
An exciting marriage of innovation and design, the new AIM has adapted its classic messenger with the personalization of youth networking sites such as MySpace and Facebook.
