Google integrates AIM with GMail
If you are one of those lucky people to have GMail 2.0, Gmail chat now gives you the option to integrate the popular AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) with your GMail account allowing you the option to chat with your AIM buddies right inside GMail. Your AIM buddies will populate your Gmail Contat list and you can search for them just like your GTalk contacts.
Once you’re signed in, just click the down arrow next to your status message and select Sign in to AIM. If this is your first time connecting, you’ll be prompted to enter your AIM screen name and password. Click Connect to continue.
For all the privacy watchers, Google will not store your AIM password. When you first sign in, your AIM password will be forwarded to AOL’s OpenAuth service. AOL will then validate your log-in information and then Google will use a token to sign you into AIM. Googe will then forget your password.

I love google chat - its totally replaced msn for me. I just leave it running all day in the office and never have problems with it like I had from time to time with msn messenger.

I was going to sign up to an affiliate network and pay out the 30% fee for each commission payout but I quite like the idea of keeping on top of things myself and offering daily spiffs and incentives.

Hello there!Thanks for the information! This is really great! Google are always trying to come up with new tools to help the users. And as my friend Jean says” The more services integrate the better it is”

Greetings just wondering if any one could suggest a good torrent downloader. Hopefully free but if reasonable and fast with good storage I would consider a paid service.

When I chat with friends, sometimes their sn automatically IMs me about a google x or gmail x or some sort of combo of the two that stores/logs the convo. Anyone know what I’m talking about because I’d like to be able to see my logs. Thanks!

I dont think they still have these… I never saw a Aım thingy on my Gmail. Maybe I’m wrong
February 26th, 2010 at 5:07 am
I just want to be able to talk to my AIM contacts, with an application on my desktop, without actually having to download the original AIM…

why not integrating with google talk ?
March 9th, 2010 at 7:47 am
This is such a HUGE surprise. I would have never even began to think about Google and AIM teaming up in anyway, then again Google is buying everything left to right just because the can.
