AOL/ICQ BetaTest

Post by LadyTevar »

AOL and ICQ are doing a beta-test on Instant Messages. The goal is to have ICQ and AOL/AIM members able to message each other freely from their respective clients.

My problem? I don't know of anyone with ICQ that I can test this out with :(

Any volunteers can PM me here on StarDestroyer, and we'll set up a test to see if it works.

Here's the low-down:
1. the AOL/AIM being tested is not yet out, so I can't tell you anything about it other than AOL Keyword: Beta.
2. This *should* work with the current edition of ICQ, or with ICQ Lite.
3. AOL wants to test smilies, away messages, adding buddies to ICQ or AOL lists, and online presence (Whether the Idle message shows, etc.)

Me: Nope, that's why I have you around to tell me.
Nitram: You -are- beautiful. Anyone tries to tell you otherwise kill them.
