The New AIM Preview, With Group And Video Chat On Both Desktop And Mobile
AOL (which owns TechCrunch) is releasing a preview of the new AIM today. It was completely redesigned by Jason Shellen's team, which joined AOL with the acquisition of Thing Labs (makers of Twitter client Brizzly). The new AIM strips away many of the Lifestream features which were previously built into AIM, and focuses solely on communications.The AIM preview is launching simultaneously on the desktop, iPhone and Android. (The mobile versions will be available later today). The buddy list is gone, replaced by recent chats (kind of like Skype). Photos and videos can be embedded inline, and chat history get synced between the mobile and desktop versions (again, much like Skype).Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/vkHKq_sVfRQ/
