AOL Instant Messenger will be shutting down on December 15th.
I'll admit that I didn't have an AIM account (I think...), but this still hurts. What I did use back in the day was
mIRC.
Ah, the days of dial-up. Before YouTube. Before Facebook. Back when my websurfing consisted of e-mail, the old h2g2.com, Delta Blues, and Newgrounds. And the occasional site for college, of course.
Anyway, does anyone have any interesting AIM memories to share?
