AOL Debuts SHOUTcast Radio, ICQ Messaging Apps for iPhone
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009 at 10:01 AM - by .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
SAN FRANCISCO -- AOL is at this week's Macworld Expo showing off two new iPhone apps: SHOUTcast Radio, which is available now, and an ICQ instant messaging app. The company also said that it is working on an update to AOL Instant Messenger for the iPhone.
SHOUTcast Radio, which is free, offers access to over 26,000 radio stations across more than 30 genres of programming. Users can save their favorites and shake their iPhone or iPod touch to change stations. Streams are displayed by popularity and quality.
SHOUTcast Radio
AOL didn't offer release dates for ICQ for iPhone or AIM for iPhone 2.0. The former will bring together AOL users, whether they're on AOL, AIM, .Mac or MobileMe, via instant messaging or SMS. Users will be able to swipe the screen to switch between conversations, keep track of favorite contacts, and incorporate a photo taken with the iPhone's camera as an ICQ Devil.
The latter will feature new SMS notifications to let users know when they receive new messages, even if AIM isn't running. From within the application, they'll be able to access contacts in their address book and send an instant message to a contact's screen name or send an SMS text message to their phone number.
