Social chatting with the AIM Wimzi
AOL has released a new way for people to chat through social networking pages or websites.This new chat widget is called the AIM Wimzi. By placing the Wimzi widget on a blog, social network page, or any other website, users can instantly chat with you when you are online with AIM. The bonus here is that your AIM name remains private, but you are able to chat with anyone. Widget names, display name, size and color can all be customized to make the widget fit in, or stand out wherever you place it.

Other players in the widgets for websites and social site chatting space are Meebome and Geesee.
