Definitely, it's also a great way to share the wonders of the internet(random videos, images, stories..etc.) with said friends.

Heck it's even a way to make friends, I chatted with some cats for a while, and when we finally met up in real life, it was as if we were old pals already.

It's not that AIM is a bad thing per se, it's just like...damn, I use it a lot.

I think, that if I can cut my AIM usage in half, my computer usage will be cut in half as well, since the majority of the time I'm aimlessly(ha!) clicking on my computer, AIM is on in the background and I'm chatting, like, the chatting is what keeps me on the computer, when otherwise I wouldn't really have much to do on it.
