  @MISTERPDW Never have I ever on this list is a zero. Had a myspace account, but didn't get how it worked so got bored and left it alone. The rest, I'm over 40 so obviously all of them. AOL online dial up internet was torture.

  @aolmail I’ve had you since the internet was invented. I know you need advertising as it’s not a service you can deliver for free.... ...but the new level of intrusion, irritation & inconvenience means you will lose users....such as me.

  This is exactly the kind of infrastructure-level integration that proves we’re past the build phase 👀 Ripple successfully tested as a blockchain enhancer for the SWIFT network (Hyperledger + ISO 20022) back in June 2025, and now it’s moving toward actual integration. Remember when the internet went from heavy build-out to mass adoption in 1998? I was an AOL shareholder and worked at UUNET selling the pipes. The parallels with XRP and the Internet of Value today are identical — regulatory clarity + real infrastructure hooks = adoption phase. We’re entering the Green Zone. 🍻

  Shotty product mockups: • Old AOL email addresses. • People who never open emails. • Filtering bad leads manually after opt-in. Professional product mockups: • Custom domains. • Reputable brands in adjacent markets • People that actually open and read your emails. The difference is night and day.

  LISTSERV Was The Place To Be In 1993! Just after dial up BBSs and just before USENET my X-like place where I went “viral” was LISTSERV. I was on over 1000 active lists. I of course was on forums on CompuServe and AOL, but LISTERV was push and not pull. It was magic! I would write there like I posted here today. There was zero spam and the highest IQs in the world just a list email away. In my Eudora archives (the best email client ever made) I have saved the results of all my lists saved. Before my tape find, I was happy I saved the Eudora in zipped PKG files. One LISTSERV I was on had 1000s of subscribers and it is where I learned of so many things months before it was news. In the 1990s I wrote the first known AI (expert system) for email, to produce a morning “Newspaper” digest I would actually have automatically printed out to read at breakfast. The AI would have knowledge of what I wanted and produced the summaries and headlines. It went viral on some of my lists I was on and it used Eudora mailbox files to access the data. Many like minded geeks like me used the software and one made a LISTSERV out of his output as a meta way to use what he called THE ULTIMATE NEWS LISTSERV. Since posting on my tapes yesterday two folks reached out to me to share their archives! I am not sure if there is overlap, but anyone with data like this, please let me know! Folks we have a mother-load here and I know we will find new data perhaps not seen since it bounced though LISTSERV. Your support made this happen. Thank you.

  One of the small things that I am proud of. I don’t become a raging douchbag online. What I am online is the exact same person you’ll find in real life. For I understand a keyboard is not an all access pass to being an *******. Too bad so many today never had a fight in a nickel arcade because some weird douchbag wouldn’t stop bumping into you while you’re trying to beat PAC Man. Too bad so many today have never enjoyed the killing fields of chat rooms in AOL. Too bad.

  key w/ reading older material like this (in QT), is a deep understanding of business models someone new would look at this and say, “why do I care about AOL” I prob would've said the same at a younger age but there's two errors, one is viewing everything ex post vs ex ante (conflating process vs outcome), the second is underestimating how sharp markets are everything is a DCF, and every business model can be mapped to an income statement + fcfs so in that light, nothing is ever really new, nor is nothing ever really old esp during dot com era, if you go back today and read a lot of initiations/bull case takes, they’re far from outrageous, and many went on to prove correct albeit on the wrong time horizon (ie took 10+ years instead of 3-5) AOL's revenue went from $425M in 1995, to nearly $5B in 1999 and ~$1B in earnings/CFO when a company is growing revs that fast, u can make a DCF work for the piece below, I don’t know tech, so I can’t do this exercise for something like AOL - but in other sectors, u can usually bank on the same principles, just with a tighter range of outcomes…why it never hurts to keep running case studies + keep feeding the pattern recognition machine.

  I spent 13 years at Southern Bell which became Bell South. Then the government took over and destroyed it. They were forced to rent their network to rivals like HBO and AOL. I sent the bills. 6 years at Motorola. After 9/11 40k of us were laid off.
