Novell Latest to Sign Up With AOL's Instant Messenger, WSJ Says Bloomberg News August 12, 1999, 3:12 a.m. PT Provo, Utah, Aug. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Novell Inc. plans to make America's Online Inc.'s instant messenger software work with its Novell Directory Services program, becoming the latest company to sign up to use the service, the Wall Street Journal said. AOL wants to make its instant messenger, which is used by 43 million people to conduct private online chats in real time, more prevalent in the workplace. The two companies will also create a special version of AOL Instant Messenger designed for Novell software users, the Journal reported. AOL, the largest online service, and Microsoft Corp., the world's No. 1 software maker, are battling over instant messaging, or real-time e-mail, with Microsoft wanting free access to AOL instant messaging users and AOL demanding payment for such access.
