Invasion of the AIM BOTS

Kaliya Young · November 16, 2005 · Leave a Comment

Today in Bryant Park I logged into Audium (my platform neutral IM Application) and these little AOL IM Bots had installed themselves on my machine. It was really really really annoying – they could have asked me nicely if I wanted some bots and what they did. Instead they just pushed them onto my machine. I was just watching the Reuters building 20 story high AIM advertisement go up and down. Saying how ‘new’ they were. Seems really old school to just install stuff on my machine without asking.
Markets are conversations guys!!! you ask before you install stuff. Maybe you should go talk to your new social software aware property before you do more stuff like this.

me AIM BOTS, Audium, IM Application, software aware property
