An anonymous reader writes "BetaNews is reporting that AOL has begun beta testing a replacement for its AOL Instant Messenger (AIM) software. Triton has an entirely new user interface that adds highly anticipated features including tabbed messaging and logging. The client will also be open to third party plug-ins." From the article: "It is no coincidence that AOL is fielding so many betas concurrently. AOL Browser, an Internet Explorer based Web browser; AOL Media Player, a standalone audio and video player; AOL search technologies and AOL's synchronization utilities are all part of what was once a unified communications client called Fanfare."
Looks better, but mager glitches.

good, because AIM was just crap compared to MSN messenger, and even trillian. Due to the lack of webcamming , poor gui (imo), limitation, and unwanted "files".. Hoopefully this new software brings a whole new name to IM.
