AOL AIM is the next generation release of AOL Instant Messenger. Using the AIM Buddy List feature, see when your buddies are online and available to instant message. The sleek new design takes instant messaging to the next level. With screen name linking, Mobile IM, Quicknote mail, an integrated Address Book, and much, much more, instant messaging is more accessible, powerful and more fun than ever. The build also includes improvements and bug fixes to the Live Video feature. You are now able to display your video session in full screen mode. To do so, start the video session, select Actions, then select Display Video Full Screen. You can also toggle your camera view in the video screen. To do this, select Actions, then select Show My Camera View.
