New Instant Messenger
by There is a new version of AOL Instant Messenger out. It was released yesterday. The only reason I am posting this is because when you closed the buddy list window in the last version of AIM, it just minimized to the system tray, but in this new version there is an option to log out of AIM when you close the buddy list window.

Also, you gotta see this funny new flash animation. It's called Mario Twins, and it's a spoof on the old Super Mario Brothers game for Nintendo. If you've played the game, you'll get a kick out of this. (Caution: I'd give it a PG-13 rating, for use of the h-e-double-hockey-sticks word, so don't click on the link if you don't want to hear that word.)
I crack up so hard watching that.

i don't see any difference here... maybe i'm too lazy to look through all the things in the preferences menu.
I haven't gotten it yet, but the one cool feature I saw on the info page, was how you can give each buddy on your list a caption, which shows up on mouse-overs. This way you can put, say, the real name for each buddy so you can remember who that loser Tesla Xapp is.
no... you're a loser!!
Everytime i downloaded it, it screwed up my IM... THANKS ian...
oh my gosh, that mario twins game link is so hilarious, I peed all over myself watching it and it was totally worth it!
