Armonk, N.Y. -- In a major move to integrate instant messaging platforms, technology giant IBM said on Monday that the new version of its secure IM platform for businesses will allow users to connect to popular messaging applications from America Online, Sunnyvale-based Yahoo and Mountain View-based Google. IBM's Lotus Sametime has 15 million corporate users, mainly at large companies. IBM rival Microsoft will not be included in the deal. Once the software is released around mid-year, Sametime users will be able to chat with those using AOL's various instant messengers, including AIM and ICQ, as well as Yahoo Messenger and Google Talk.
