What is a plugin?
A plugin is a piece of code that adds features and functionality into the AIM client. For example, a plugin could be developed that displays AIM Fight scores for an entire Buddy List feature. Or, you could link "away messages" to your favorite music program.
We invite you to use the AIM SDK to build creative and helpful new Plugins for the AIM service.
