  @ebooksyearn Even their status-title “network” is anachronistic in the modern telecom world. They’re like AOL back when it was a closed ecosystem.

  @AOL Why have I been seeing “We’re having trouble connecting with our servers. Please try again later,” for about a day now?

  Some of you have never spent a summer messaging a complete stranger on dial-up AOL Instant Messenger and it shows. 😫 #LoveIsBlindNetflix #loveisblind

  @annasproul I was one of a handful of producers in the Dulles, VA AOL newsroom on 9/11. The campus was evacuated after a plane that departed from the adjacent airport slammed into the Pentagon. I’ll never forgot having to sit on my hands because they were shaking so much I couldn’t type.

  @jstrandt Got to film their 5 millionth sign up party at KaloramaStudios in Adams Morgan and they never paid me! I went on Aol because my dad was CompuServe and I didn’t wanna be old LOL

  @woolfhound That was precisely my experience with NYT, and it reminded me if when I had similar experiences trying to cancel my AOL or Bally's membership. Tacky and desperate.

  There can be no risk-free opportunity in sports, business or life. Failure is catastrophic bc of a lack of preparedness. Sears, DC redskins, Blackberry, AOL, & NYC knicks were at the top of their game, but they failed because they were afraid to fail. #failureispartofsuccess

  @hthieblot Oldest website I still use would have to be Yahoo. I still think about Quantum Link (Q-Link) , which was a Commodore 64/128 only dial-up service I joined in 1986. Mainly used it to play chess online. Kind of counts as an "app". Q-Link later became AOL.

  @KieranWrites $$$ and the fact YouTube still gets more content uploaded in 10 mins than you can watch in a year means it's pretty much impossible to compete. The real issue is DMCA is from 1999. Internet has changed from the AOL free Internet disc days.

  @peterpuma4 @nodqdotcom @TripleH Russo kept an audience of 3 mil. and had to deal with the lack of funding and support from AOL/TW. Meanwhile HHH has infinite funding, streaming, resources of TKO, and the show is still DYING. Russo had 3x the ratings as HHH. They said ratings didn't matter, but now empty arenas?

  @airtable raised at $11.7B in December 2021. This morning it agreed to be acquired by Bending Spoons at roughly $2.25B equity value, about 80% off the peak. Everyone's reading that as a collapse. It isn't. Airtable does ~$480M in ARR, growing 20%+ a year, across 500,000 organizations including 80% of the Fortune 100. If you described that business to someone without telling them the funding history, they'd call it excellent. So the company didn't fail. The 2021 price failed. And I think there's something worth taking from that if you're building right now. For about a decade, the scoreboard was the valuation. It was the thing that got tweeted, the thing that got you on the podcast, the thing that made you feel like you were winning. And it turned out to be the single most reversible number in the whole business. Revenue doesn't get revised down 80% by a change in interest rates. Paper does. Nobody is handing out 2021 valuations in 2026. That's not the loss it sounds like. It just means the only number left worth chasing is the one that was always real. Also worth watching: Bending Spoons has now bought AOL, Eventbrite and Airtable inside seven months. Somebody has noticed there's a whole generation of good software companies stranded above their last round, and has built an acquisition machine pointed directly at them.
