  Mark Bjorge (@MarkBjorge) reported 8 minutes ago from Washington, D.C., Washington, D.C.

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

  @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.

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

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

  @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

  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

  @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.

  @doc_1029 @KickRocks2026 I agree with you. I got to say, though...Years ago. AOL was the king. And I was involved w an online game. N I got to tell u the two techie guys would argue every week during n after our missions I loved watching them argue. Some kind of voyeurism issue I don't know. But I got a kick out of it

  @FOXLA All I can say is Paramount+ sucks. I tried it twice. It is a technical glitch disaster on my TV. It just loads like it was AOL dial-up! Give me a break!

  @PatVPeters Go fix me a drink, AOL.

  Yahoo has really followed the demise of Excite, Netscape and AOL. Terribly sad. Very poor management.

  @bobo103nyc I remember seeing this as a kid back in the AOL days and thinking “surely this is the worst thing I’ll ever see on the internet”

  @theliamnissan Damn just switched from AOL too

• 
  Sergio Vengeance 🇺🇲🎮🤘 (@SergioVengeance) reported 14 minutes ago

  @JoelKatz @RealZaikTorek @Awk20000 Not to mention the very first big section 230 case was about AOL and them being too slow to censor a malicious troll who was spreading confirmed lies that led to harassment. So even if the argument is "the website didn't censor this" then that's a core Section 230 argument.

  @AlisonSomin @varadmehta AOL people were just boomers who never actually learned the internet.

  Del Leonard Jones (@jonesdel) reported 18 minutes ago

  @MilkRoadAI Frontier models appear headed down the AOL road. If Anthropic and OpenAI fail, I wonder who gets dragged down with them.

  @oelma__ Nope. Not really. I remember when yahoo and msn came along. I had AOL at 2.0. (Can't remember the name of the service before them, but it only lasted 2 hours and cost too much to keep going.)
