AOL Instant Messenger is integrating Facebook Connect to allow AIM users to chat with their Facebook friends.

AOL said Wednesday that a new version of AIM connects with the instant-messaging function on Facebook's Web site, letting AIM users communicate with friends who are logged on to the social network and available to chat.

Once an AIM user downloads the new software and links it with their Facebook profile, their buddy list will include a list of online Facebook friends.
