America Online last week made its AOL 9.0 client available to beta testers.
The software, code-named Blue Hawaii, is a marked departure from the last release, AOL 8.0, in offering a skinnable, or changeable, user interface code-named Prescott. With it, AOL members will have many more opportunities to customize the navigation and design of the AOL client.
AOL 9.0 also introduces a feature called QuickViews, which allows members to obtain information by rolling their mouse over a feature.
