In the AIM menus somewhere it says "join Chat" or "go chat" or something like that. Room name is ninefourteen.

silly me...I was trying to find it on yahoo IM

do you have to have AOL for it??

That's funny. I saw you sign on to Yahoo. I remember thinking, "That's Mueller. Maybe he'll join the chat". Then, I realized that you were on Yahoo and the chat is on AIM.

I'm running Trillian and I'm logged on to AIM, Yahoo, MSN, and ICQ at the same time.

I don't know if this has anything to do with it or not...

Was this...
Q: How can I use AIM to chat with AOL buddies?

A: Right now, AOL chat rooms are only accessible by AOL members. However, AOL members can join AIM chat rooms if they have AIM running on their computer.


...no, I'm not a paying member of AOL (laugh). I haven't seen the "join chat" option for a few client versions back.

I've done a search on aol for ninefourteen & it comes back with no matches.

Where it says "send Buddy a chat invitation" try sending the invite to yourself and put "ninefourteen" as the room
