Whoever thought an instant messaging service could be the epitomy of someones life. Along with technology aim has evolved into taking a huge impact on peoples lives. It is like a more evolved form of text messaging.
To be honest it is also very addictive and has both pros and cons for teenagers in this day and age. It is almost like a drug because its like we have to have one. Think about it when guys pick up girls or want to talk to them now the statistics of them asking for your number anymore has reduce they usually ask if you have aim lol.
The biggest problem with aim is the away messages and icons especially if you are in a relationship. If your significant other see's you putting a person of the other sex in your away message or a picture on your icon conclusions are automatically jumped too and there you go another problem on your hands. And its always kind of funny too me too see people who be having the away messages one week talkin bout they love they baby one week then the next week its either f'k niggas or girls(k) lol.
What I never got is why people send subliminal messages on away messages when they have the persons screen name or can simply tell them what they feel in person. Pretty dumb.
But aim has also been a good buisness factor for music promotion or partys or people simply selling stuff. And best believe darn near anybody with a sidekick has aim and a lot of people get caught slippin. They walk around with they head in they phone aimin not paying attention and bam there yu go somebody gets you for ya phone because you ain't payin no kinds of attention. Trust me I know from experience but the person who tried to rob me was pretty dumb because he tried to catch me when I was walking home not knowing I knew exactly who he was. Didn't even know how to rob me because I still had my phone in the end. Smh.
But yeah I don't really think when aim was created that the makers had any of these intentions haha. But if they did then they really put they're minds together for this one.
