I just wanted to drop in on the AOL Desktop blog to let everyone know that the AOL Mac team has released AIM for Mac 1.0 and AOL Desktop for Mac 1.5. Almost all my Windows friends have a buddy or family member who's on the Mac, so feel free to spread the word.

You can get a copy of AIM for Mac 1.0 by visiting AIM.com (you can also click the AIM for Mac screen shot).

AIM for Mac 1.0

If you're one of those users who is thinking of moving over to the Mac, AOL's got you covered.

AOL Desktop for Mac 1.5 was released on Monday, December 15. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a comment here or on the Mac@AOL Blog.

thanks!

Howdy everyone,

AOL Desktop received a glowing (and thorough) podcast review a few weeks ago from Dick DeBartolo aka The GizWiz.

Here's the link. After a brief intro about gadgets, the story on how Dick got into AOL Desktop begins about 2 or 3 minutes in.
