People still use aim messenger.

Yeah, people actually PAY to use it as well. Have some customers that want to federate to AIM and have to pay a subscription.

When I first learned this, I looked it up and AOL charges for that per user, per year and Cisco (for Jabber) passes it along. It's like 3-4 dollars a user after discount - but still.

AIM and Yahoo!chat were the easiest "goddamnit I can't go spend $50 at the bar, who wants to fuck?" portals ever created for the early 20-somethings in post-Y2K scare history.

Notes>Sametime at my work. Hate that crap it's nothing but constant interruptions

Craig's company uses it as their intrachat system. I've found that lots of businesses do. So that's how he and I chat throughout the day, too. Me on the mobile app and him at work. lol

Well, to be clear.. We used it exclusively until we were bought by a larger company, so officially we use MS Office Communicator, but we use AIM too. Mainly so we can maintain a group chat for our team. Rather than having to invite people to one daily.

Company uses MSM Communicator for inter-office/corporate/other site chat. All other IMs are blocked.

Man...I totally forgot about using it. All my buddies that I chat with I text now on the smart phone.
