Free Aim Font To Download For Mac

The sounds of opening and closing doors heard around the world when contacts appeared and disappeared from your AIM Buddy List will be heard no more. The away messages, the customizable fonts and colors, and the goofy web 1.0 handles - mine were SardonicLaughs and Crazy4Blur - will soon be gone for good. AIM, AOL's longtime instant messenger, is closing on December 15, 2017. The 20-year-old web-based IM client, which dominated chat in the late '90s and early '00s, started losing users with the launch of competing programs, such as Yahoo! Messenger, MSN Messenger, iChat, and Google Talk.

But the rise in smartphone messaging may have been the nail in AIM's coffin. Since AOL (now a division of Verizon's Oath) says it has no plans to replace AIM, here are some AIM alternatives to keep the conversation going. Why is AIM closing down?

So developers can 'focus on building the next generation of iconic brands and life-changing products,' according to AOL. What happens to my buddy list, images and files, and chat history? These will all be deleted after December 15. While your buddy list may not be saved or exported, your images and files within your chat history (as long as no one selected 'Go off the record') can be. To manually save your images and files, sign in to AIM, open and scroll through an existing chat, and click the image or file you'd like to keep; it'll open in a new browser tab or window. Then right-click it and choose your preferred save option. Can you still use AIM before December 15?

Yes, users who have already downloaded AIM can continue to log in to and message over the chat service until the morning of December 15. For those who haven't downloaded AIM yet, note that AOL will begin removing download links before December 15.
