When Ian Millar opened up his AOL Instant Messenger program yesterday and linked
to the new AIM Triton site, he wasn't prepared for what he saw.
"I have been an AIM customer for many years, and although I do not use AOL for
my mail client, I have recommended it for relatives and friends," he said in a
letter to top executives of the company. "In general, I appreciate AOL and your
business savvy."
But when Millar saw the company's new slogan, he was shocked and disgusted. He
was not alone.
Millar wonders if any of AOL's marketing and planning directors ever went to
Christian Sunday school or attended Jewish services.
He points out to AOL executives that "I AM" is the English translation of YaHWeH,
the self-proclaimed name of God.
