AOL Aims to Cash In on Instant Messenger Success: “AOL has begun trying to sell specialized versions of IM to businesses. For example, it has a revenue-sharing partnership with a cell phone company, Nextel Communications Inc., to offer instant messaging to its customers, and it is pushing for more such deals. And while it has no plans to charge consumers for the existing service, AOL is considering selling add-ons such as matchmaking and games.”
