AIM transformed screen names, buddy lists, and away messages into everyday rituals for teens, students, and online communities. Its story spans the rise of consumer messaging from 1997 to its final sign-off in 2017. A bold daily companion for collectors of web history and early digital culture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAOL Instant Messenger, commonly known as AIM and sometimes styled aim, was AOL's instant messaging and presence-information program from 1997 to 2017. It launched in May 1997 as a stand-alone download for Microsoft Windows, growing from the \"online messages\" feature of AOL's original platform, written in PL\/1 on a Stratus computer by Dave Brown. Using AOL's OSCAR protocol, with TOC also available for simpler clients, AIM became a major North American messaging service and was especially prominent in the United States. Its late-1990s and 2000s culture was closely associated with buddy lists, screen names, and frequently updated away messages among teens and college students. AOL acquired competitor ICQ in 1998 and competed with Yahoo! Messenger and MSN Messenger. AIM later expanded across mobile and desktop platforms. Its audience declined as SMS, Google Talk, Facebook Messenger, iMessage, and WhatsApp changed online communication. Verizon acquired AOL in June 2015, then combined AOL and Yahoo in Oath Inc. in June 2017. AIM ended service on December 15, 2017.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"padding: 10px;\"\u003e \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"1\" style=\"font-weight: 500; font-size: 15px; padding: 10px;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003e40oz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eHeight, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"2\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e9.84\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eWidth with handle, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"3\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e5.79\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003eDiameter, in\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd data-row=\"4\" style=\"padding: 10px; font-size: 15px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(237, 237, 237); word-break: break-word;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(82, 82, 82);\"\u003e4.02\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProduct features\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Leak-proof push-on lid with easy latch\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Double-wall stainless steel insulation for long temperature retention\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Large 40oz capacity with included straw and ergonomic handle\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Durable powder-coated finish with UV-DTF printed design\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- BPA-free materials; hand wash recommended\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- Clean in dishwasher (put the product on top rack), or wash by hand with warm water and dish soap\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEU representative\u003c\/strong\u003e: HONSON VENTURES LIMITED, gpsr@honsonventures.com, 3, Gnaftis House flat 102, Limassol, Mesa Geitonia, 4003, CY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct information\u003c\/strong\u003e: Polar Camel, 2 year warranty in EU and Northern Ireland as per Directive 1999\/44\/EC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/strong\u003e: Clean in dishwasher (put the product on top rack), or wash  by hand with warm water and dish soap\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Printify","offers":[{"title":"40oz \/ Dark Gray","offer_id":54486200615196,"sku":"19426998142312554909","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40oz \/ Olive Green","offer_id":54486200647964,"sku":"27816561480146731048","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40oz \/ Black","offer_id":54486200680732,"sku":"25609755557005520273","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40oz \/ Teal","offer_id":54486200713500,"sku":"27037473501684489783","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"40oz \/ White","offer_id":54486200746268,"sku":"13087817435746880810","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/2517\/5580\/files\/868619140667569063_2048.jpg?v=1788149661","url":"https:\/\/ghostcorpapparel.com\/products\/aol-instant-messenger-aim-40oz-insulated-travel-mug-stainless-tumbler","provider":"Ghost Corp Apparel","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
