What's new in AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) 7.5.14.8
Jun 1, 2012
- Share your favorite pics, videos and more:
- Pick something to share:
- AIM can handle links to photos, videos and tweets already online, or you can upload files from your computer or phone.
- Add it to your chat:
- Upload an image file, or copy and paste a link to a video, image or Twitter post. (On your mobile phone, you can even snap a pic to share.)
- Enjoy:
- Your friends will see what you’ve shared instantly, without leaving the chat.
- IMAGES:
- What good is a chat if you can’t share photos of pets and/or members of Congress? Upload or share links to image files in most formats including PNG, JPEG and GIF.
- VIDEOS:
- That auto-tuned humanitarian speech isn’t going to watch itself. Share links to videos on YouTube and Vimeo, and your friends can watch them without having to click away.
- TWEETS:
- Whether celeb quips, biz tips or hissy fits, the best Twitter content is the kind you want to share. Paste a link to a tweet and AIM will show the text (and who originally said it) right inline.
- Group conversation has never been simpler:
- Add friends:
- You can add as many (or as few) friends as you want to a group chat.
- Name your group:
- Give your group a descriptive, handy and/or fun name so you remember what it’s for.
- Chat away:
- Super easy, right? Group chats are a great way to share with friends, family, classmates, coworkers, teammates and more.
- Stay connected to all your friends:
- AIM:
- Receive notifications when people follow your updates on AIM.
- TWITTER:
- See mentions, direct messages and new follower notifications from Twitter.
- FACEBOOK:
- All the comments, tags, likes and requests from Facebook. None of the drama.
- INSTAGRAM:
- Keep tabs on comments, likes and new followers on this super-fun mobile app.
- GMAIL:
- Take a glance at your Gmail inbox without needing to live in your email application all day.
- AOL MAIL:
