GMail Now Includes AIM!

Hey folks,

Do you know anyone who is a hardcore Google Mail (GMail) user? If so, spread the word that they can now sign into AIM, when checking their GMail. This is a picture of AIM in GMail.

GMail has included Google Talk (GTalk) into their e-mail product for quite some time, but it's been expanded to let you sign into AIM easily. This means all you need to do to enjoy AIM, is sign into your GMail to access your e-mail and chat with your buddies.

All this is made possible with the Open APIs available from AIM Developer (AIMcc), and the friendly folks over at Google who worked with us to provide the best user experience.

I tried this out yesterday and today, and it works flawlessly. Go ahead, try it out!

Learn more about this announcement from Google. Also, if you need help with this new feature, read up on it at the Google Help Center.
