I never had an AIM account, but my parents and I shared a Compuserve email (that they still both use). That is run by AOL also. Whenever you log in it says, "You Got Mail."
stuart balchin icq was aim before aol did instant messaging. Teens to adults, especially those in internet business were quite fond of icq as it incorporated multi-user chatting.
I'm pretty sure my account name was michigannut87 and I don't remember the password, but I loved it in middle school. I used to leave corny jokes as my away message, possibly cornier than what Madison came up with. It was so much fun. Farewell, AIM. We'll miss you.
It was also in Germany I live there and I used AOL sometimes back then. I don’t know maybe it was different from American AOL but it was in Germany too.
I'll be honest, I got a little misty eyed when they played 'I will remember you' song. AIM was were it all started for me and I would spend hours on AIM chatting.
Msn and Yahoo. Me and my little girlfriend use to play games on there. She had high speed and I had dial up...So I'd get kicked off or take forever to move 😂😂.
One thing you forgot to bring up: There used to be a device called IMFree that was only for using AIM when you were on the go. Like texting on your phone, but not on your phone.
I remember first noticing the warning feature (in the first gen AIM client), and out of curiosity played around with it. It was possible to msg yourself and then warn yourself. One of my friends asked if I would be on AIM that evening. "Nope, can't get on till tomorrow. I'm banned for the night." / "What?? What'd you do?!" / "I spammed myself."
My friends and I were always creating new user names based on a something we saw while hanging out or an inside joke. I probably had about 7 over the span of one summer. My current user name for almost every online service is the last AIM name I ever created, and I haven't used AIM since 2005.
I’m glad they’re all saying AIM the right way, I’d get so pissed when people would call it A.I.M. Like no it’s a word don’t say the letters 😂 literally had a solid fight in middle school about this 🤘🏻

Same ! I think it depends on the country. MSN Messenger was to most prominent one in my town. I miss my blue and green buddies instead of the running yellow man icon.
Oh AIM💖 I'm so sorry we all left like that. We own you so much. None of that is today and the friendships we have would've been possible without you. Thank you thank you big time. Love you 😭💖 a/s/l anyone? Hahaha
I got my broadband through AOL about 15 years ago and used their email as my primary email, but then I changed broadband provider and couldn't use that email anymore which caused serious hassle, so ever since then I stayed completely away from AOL because of them stupidly tying an email address to a monthly subscription.
I remember we had Internet from AOL back in like 02' i was probably 7 around the time, but I can remember fondly the big beige machine, logging onto aim, it's crazy that at that age i was talking to people thinking they were also my age, pretty crazy
All the achievements that are listed in this video were first accomplished by ICQ, not AIM. ICQ was the first instant messenger with its initial release in 1996 and AOL bought it in 1998.
My second comment here but... AIM was nothing in my country... Here we used MSN Messenger (later Windows Live Messenger) which was introduced 18 years ago.
Texting was invented in 1992. Granted MySpace was founded in 2003, 14 years ago.The meaning of nostalgia is "a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations" so in my opinion I don't think nostalgia has to be a certain length of time ago. I feel nostalgia because of how simple things were with texting and for MySpace the times of changing profile backgrounds, choosing top 8 friends, finding the right song to evoke your feelings and personality for whatever "phase" you happened to be in that week. It's just crazy to me how progressive things have become and how fast the ease of texting changed, when just 8 years ago when I was in school it was work and took longer to send lengthy messages and actually typing out your emoticons.

MSN Messenger was my fave. The hours I spent on there probably added up to months or years worth of my life lmao.
MSN was were I had my first girlfriend. She went offline and I never heard from her again :(
Open bob
She's tired of you
@@vin8523 No dont tell him

i use to have a aim account and whenever i would log in to AOL i would always hear "You Got Mail" everytime.
It sounded more like "you got mayo" to me.
Yay Maddie is still telling jokes.
"Welcome!"
"You've got mail!"
Also, I remember having heated arguments of aim vs msn vs icq.
What is icq
stuart balchin icq was aim before aol did instant messaging. Teens to adults, especially those in internet business were quite fond of icq as it incorporated multi-user chatting.
+Jade Park that's cool that would of been a great alternative to msn for me
i love msn messenger (escargot msn bring it back with new servers), the nudge, winks etc... AIM was empty, just calls IM and emoticons.
One day there will be a react to skype's death
I am waiting for the Facebook's death. But it is a mystery when it will happen.
Do teens/college kids react to Myspace
Overseas, MSN was way bigger.
I'm pretty sure my account name was michigannut87 and I don't remember the password, but I loved it in middle school. I used to leave corny jokes as my away message, possibly cornier than what Madison came up with. It was so much fun. Farewell, AIM. We'll miss you.
Wow Echosmith 😍 Great Job FBE , I don't see it coming
MSN chat was the best! Cheers from Brasil!
I don't think this was ever popular outside the States..
James Jiao i once downloaded it but i didnt get it at all
Yeah, I remember my browser always trying to persuade me to download AIM but I never did. ICQ all the way.
It was called America Online after all
yup
It was also in Germany I live there and I used AOL sometimes back then. I don’t know maybe it was different from American AOL but it was in Germany too.
adults play Emily is Away
U know Emily is away?
I'll be honest, I got a little misty eyed when they played 'I will remember you' song. AIM was were it all started for me and I would spend hours on AIM chatting.
"and I'm not going to disclose what those conversations were about" ahh I got ya.. THOSE conversations..
did anyone else use MSN messenger instead of AIM!?
I did had 30 friends I got their usernames from 123chat or uk chat
Msn and Yahoo. Me and my little girlfriend use to play games on there. She had high speed and I had dial up...So I'd get kicked off or take forever to move 😂😂.
I used both and Yahoo IM haha
Absolutely not!!! AIM for life!
Everyone outside of USA had msn I remember it was really big here in Canada
Ayyy they brought in Echosmith to react to this we need more of them on this channel
@FBE you should do a video called "Kids React to MYSPACE" It'd show how truly a flash-in-the-pan it was as a social networking platform.
That sushi joke tho lol
*clears throat* Ahem...
*_YOU GOT MAIL!_*
One thing you forgot to bring up: There used to be a device called IMFree that was only for using AIM when you were on the go. Like texting on your phone, but not on your phone.
I used to use the Yahoo Messenger, and I think the Hotmail one too. They had moving backgrounds, the Koi pond was my favorite one.
the WASABI part made me laugh!!! lol
2035: people reacting to facebook shutting down.
Me: ohhhh i remember that!!! No one uses that anymore!!!

"This reminds me of the 90s."
No it doesn't. Windows XP came out in 2001.
‘Death of MySpace’ now that’s something
Aim and MSN were my two most used messaging services when I was younger.
I only used MSN messenger
me too!
same
THE COOL KIDS!
Echosmith!
Oh man this takes me back, i miss these times soo much!! Such great memories on aim...used to talked to soo many people on here.
7:48 I love how the guy on the left moved in close and closer after each of them spoke.😅
How about ICQ.... heck I have an ICQ number in the thousands.
HELL YEAH! ICQ IS THE BEST!
Wow...you featured Echosmith!!
I never had an AIM account, I only knew the sounds from the game "Emily is Away" and "Emily is Away, Too". Adults should play those games.
Have them react to Myspace.
In Europe we had:MSN, Yahoo! Messenger, Caramail... These were good times.
My friends and I were always creating new user names based on a something we saw while hanging out or an inside joke. I probably had about 7 over the span of one summer.
My current user name for almost every online service is the last AIM name I ever created, and I haven't used AIM since 2005.
echosmith has just casually walked into the building and nobody noticed. *mind blown*
4:10 SHE HAS MORE
Only watched this coz of Echosmith. Sydney is just gorgeous.
I’m glad they’re all saying AIM the right way, I’d get so pissed when people would call it A.I.M. Like no it’s a word don’t say the letters 😂 literally had a solid fight in middle school about this 🤘🏻
Being from Europe I have no idea what Aim is or AOL!
same
It wasn't very popular outside of the US.
We had it in Australia.
aol means america online, so it was only available america.
@@gianrecana9858
Failed assumption. It was also available in the UK and Australia.

I was mostly a MSN messenger when i was a teen
I love Madison's jokes.. ;) Please keep them coming in the end card like she used to do on teens react.. :)
Rest in peace AIM. We will never forget you 😢 #LestWeForget ❤
Practically nobody used AIM in my city. MSN was where it's at. And of course, MSN Live was necessary for the offline message feature.
MSN Messenger is where it was at 👥💙
Yeah Msn baby!!!
Am i the only one that would not mind having IM from back in the day back? Man i miss them days.
Jayden we still have it today, tho. It just evolved. Ya know?
Meh. We used MSN messenger more. All the hacks, the forced buzz, ah. It was awesome.
ThatOnePerson I miss MSN !!!
that noise of getting a message threw me back oh my goddd
AIM wasn't just used on a computer, the game changer was when AIM was available as an "app" on SHARP's Sidekick phone which made AIM ever so popular!
Lol! The thing I had when I was younger was MSN messenger :'D I had no idea this software was there :'D
♥
Same ! I think it depends on the country. MSN Messenger was to most prominent one in my town. I miss my blue and green buddies instead of the running yellow man icon.
Haha X'D
Is nobody going to say anything about Alix coming back? She was chill and still is ♡
IKR I screamed her name when I first saw her
Where i live we mostly used MSN. MSN was fun cause you could configure smiley and stuff
Omg Alix is back, I remember her from a while ago and wondered where she went.
People still type ASL. Lmao
I’m always sooo happy when Tom is in an episode!!❤️
It's nice to see Alix back, feel like she hasn't been in a video in AGES!
Same.
0:33
I guess he really isn’t a cool kid...
DeadHeroOrAliveVillain 1019 I highly approve of this pun XD
i understood that reference
Barcadia That made me think of Cass in Supernatural. I'm such a fangirl XD
Remember AIM but never used it. MSN was where it was at.
THIS IS THE TRUTH!
Yass
😁😁😁
Echosmith is back! 😀
omg Echosmith !! Loves them
Windows Live Messenger was a thing i don't think i ever had an AOL but i did have a yahoo messenger XD
Oh AIM💖 I'm so sorry we all left like that. We own you so much. None of that is today and the friendships we have would've been possible without you. Thank you thank you big time. Love you 😭💖
a/s/l anyone? Hahaha
HAHAHAHAHA. That WAAAASABI joke is cute and hilarious.
I’m 13 and I only know the noises because of “Emily is away”
right
*Remembers emily is away*
*tries not to cry*
*cries*
I don't think anyone outside of the US used AIM. Here in NZ, it was MSN Messenger.
Now have the exact same people play Emily is Away.
I don't have ever use AIM, I did use MSN Messenger back in days.
I got my broadband through AOL about 15 years ago and used their email as my primary email, but then I changed broadband provider and couldn't use that email anymore which caused serious hassle, so ever since then I stayed completely away from AOL because of them stupidly tying an email address to a monthly subscription.
I remember we had Internet from AOL back in like 02' i was probably 7 around the time, but I can remember fondly the big beige machine, logging onto aim, it's crazy that at that age i was talking to people thinking they were also my age, pretty crazy
Omg the way they remembered their user name
The feels I get just from watching them
So good
React to Chat Rooms. (AOL chat and Yahoo chat in particular). Miss those days
They should play Emily is away
YES they should!
All the achievements that are listed in this video were first accomplished by ICQ, not AIM. ICQ was the first instant messenger with its initial release in 1996 and AOL bought it in 1998.
"This reminds me of the 90's"
THAT'S THE WIN2000/XP DESIGN!
I never used AOL, I used MSN Messager and Yahoo Chat a little
I was more into Yahoo! Instant Message, myself.
Madison with the jokes XD It made my day.
echosmith really had some deep thoughts on this
ICQ was the first messenger type program I used..
However, before all that, I remember being in IRC chat rooms
Awww man... those sounds! Brings me right back to my middle school days!
4:10 "I have more." 😂
Started with ICQ, never used AOL, and later on MSN Messenger with msn plus add on.
Never thought that AOL was the most used program, maybe more in US.
Omg I remember ICQ! Uh oh!
"It's so unappealing to the eye" I beg to differ
Lmao i love scott for saying that. I did the same thing as middle schooler. Such fun simple times they were back then
oh Madison and her puns!! she's rly adorable
I like how Echosmith is just casually in this video.
REACT TO MYSPACE IT WAS ICONIC
My second comment here but... AIM was nothing in my country... Here we used MSN Messenger (later Windows Live Messenger) which was introduced 18 years ago.
I'm from Quebec and there nobody used that, we all used MSN.
I kinda miss the time of AIM, YIM, MSN and IRC. A lot of memories from those times...
You should do MySpace!!! Or even reacting to T9 texting! Oh the nostalgia!!!
Texting was invented in 1992. Granted MySpace was founded in 2003, 14 years ago.The meaning of nostalgia is "a sentimental longing or wistful affection for the past, typically for a period or place with happy personal associations" so in my opinion I don't think nostalgia has to be a certain length of time ago.

It's just crazy to me how progressive things have become and how fast the ease of texting changed, when just 8 years ago when I was in school it was work and took longer to send lengthy messages and actually typing out your emoticons.
Wait no one is commenting about Echosmith appearing in this vid?
Never used aim. Yahoo and msn is what I used in the 90's.
And 20 or 30 years later we might have a new social media app
Yayyy! Thanks for choosing my suggestion! 💜💜
I love Madison’s joke 😂
