More on AOL Journals

Posted by Stowe Boyd

Reading detailed notes on AOL Journal from Jeff Jarvis, I thought to add this post:

"The really awesome possibilities of AOL Journals will arise from presence-enabling and IM-enabling blogs. Knowing that "boydstowe" -- my AIM screenname -- is online right now when you read this comment, might lead you to directly contact me to clarify or expand. And of course, if AOL 'gets it' (like Dave and the other distinguished blogheads said that they do) then AOL will begin to add functionality incestuously, so that AOL chats can be directly posted to blogs (which I already read about elsewhere).

I recommend that TypePad and Blogger (and the other pure play blog companies) start figuring how to incorporate IM technologies ASAP.


I intend to pester my contacts in AOL so I too can fiddle with this new stuff.
