AOL's AIM Triton software includes instant messaging, voice chat, video chat, email and text messaging. The AOL Buddy List supports 500 contacts that you can organize in the Universal Address Book. The address book automatically updates whenever one of your buddies changes his/her information and you can decide how much of your personal information is displayed for others. Voice chat lets you talk to up to 20 of your AIM buddies at a time. You can also access your buddy list on your mobile device to send and receive text messages or send messages from your computer to your buddies' phone.

With AIM Triton you can share files and photos of any size simply by dragging the file and dropping it into your messenger window. You can view videos, movie trailers, music videos and more right from your buddy list feature. AOL AIM Triton offers great live video chat as well.

If all your buddies are using AOL, then you'll enjoy this product. However, you are obligated to make AOL your homepage and download their toolbar when you install this product. They also have limited customer support. For a product with all these great features without hassles, see Windows Live Messenger.
