  @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

  @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.

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

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

  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.

  $XRPARMY (@JoshMcKinney18) reported 6 minutes ago

  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. 🍻

  @KydJustice If AOL/Time Warner wanted to keep wrestling on their network, nothing happening in WCW at the time would have mattered. Brooks is full of ****.

  @GoatR2_ I’m down let’s bring our AOL screen names too even though that don’t exist anymore more 😭

  @blind_via I love that you can tell immediately exactly who this data is from and how they got it. Incredibly obvious by AOL Mail being the same amount of time as Twitter, this is boomers who click yes on every single pop-up they are given and were served a pop up on some scammy site or an email to "help with a brief survey" that led them to install the browser extension they used to get this data. Literally no one else would intentionally install a browser extension to track how they use their computer.

  @h_e_p_56 @rationalaxiom I ran a lawn/snow/leaves company made $14.4M by selling the software & web design so that when AOL dialup was going people could see an ad for a service near them. Simple HTML I was 17 sitting in business class Junior year and this fool great guy trying to tell me?

  @4thOfJuly365 Funny enough the one I never had was an AOL account. Otherwise all of the rest. Was born in 1970.
