AIM Mail Web interface

Mac users report success accessing the beta version of AOL's new ). The Windows AIM (AOL Instant Messenger) client offers integration with the free service, while Mac users can only access it via a Web interface. Each account comes with 2 gigabytes of storage -- comparable with Google's Gmail and more generous than the free offerings from Yahoo and Microsoft. Unlike AOL's regular email accounts, users do not have to actively save messages to avoid deletion: AIM mail never expires.

Oooh yay! BIG HONKIN' BANNER ADS!! Should I really have expected anything different from AIM, of all places?

No thanks. gmail's ads are much less intrusive. Oh well, I guess that means PowerBook G5's are on their way in June, eh?

I guess I should count my blessings that all I get is a blank page after logging in using Safari on 10.4.1....

I don't think so. All I get is a blank page after I log in using safari on 10.4 or 10.4.1
