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

  @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.

  @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.

  @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

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

  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

  @The_mrNG @CanaanQuest @citizencyborg Blockbuster dominated video rental and doesn't exist. MySpace was the monopoly social network. Xerox, Blackberry, Yahoo, AOL, etc the graveyard of monopolies is bigger than the list of current ones.

  @adrian_wil38851 @StealthQE4 We peaked when you had to battle with your mom when she told you to end your AOL chats so she could use the phone. Kids will never understand it, but it was just such a simpler time

  @cyberat2600 I tried this on a very similar computer when we got an AOL disk in the mail. The little epson computer was too slow even for the time and could barely handle the AOL software.
