What are the different categories of Buddy Groups?
There are two categories of Groups, Public groups and Private Groups. A Private group would be a group unique to your Buddy List that you created, and you have total control over it. For example, “Work”, “Buddies”, “AIM Dev”, etc. You control who get’s added or removed or even if the group exists. A Public group is one that is created by other means. This allows you to create or join a group via a webpage and it automatically added a Buddy List Group of all the members to your Buddy List. IM Blast Groups behave this way. You join the Blast Group. It get’s added to your Buddy List. When you leave the group, the group is removed from your Buddy List. “Bebo”, and “My WIMZI” are groups that can not be deleted. • Smart Groups – http://buddyinfo.aim.com/sg • Wimzi – http://wimzi.aim.com/ – click on manage • Bebo – Not currently deletable. • Blast – http://blast.aim.com – you can go to blast.aim.com and unsubscribe from the group which will make the group disappear from your Buddy List.
