Available... no, away... no, available again... wait, no: Users of AOL's Instant Messenger service didn't know whether they were coming or going for a brief period this morning. According to an AOL spokesperson, the outage occurred during a software update and were resolved. By 11:00 am PST, no further glitches were officially reported, though Betanews tests have been revealing evidence of AIM misbehavior up until mid-afternoon.
