    I made an oldschool AIM app for your phone [vid]



    PopularMechanics.com put my vid below up and it got a ton of users, christ it was a shit show. People were chat scrolling like it was AOL '95.

    I've made 5 upgrades since this morning, one of which getting rid of the unique AOL sounds (C&D inevitable, probably still is) and requiring FB auth to deter the trolls and make them bannable.

      Is it just chat app that looks like AIM, or actual AIM?
      Pretty cool either way.

                  I updated the app with unique sounds, which is the only thing I used as-was in the video.

                  I will probably just end up deleting it shortly to avoid any issues. I built it mainly to get my site exposure, and learn, -- both of which I did.

                  EDIT: Actually, yeah, I don't want to deal with any bullshit. I just removed the app
