  Email server Recommendations anyone? AOL has been the host for mine--but now they've made it hard to use. They now put different, and very distracting, balloons at the beginning for each message. I don't want a message service that makes it harder.

  He IS a security risk but I’d say he’s more like Netscape (old as shit and useless) or the old AOL software (kept around far longer than should have been because people liked the one catchphrase it had)

  I'd known about #DnD but never played. Not even the geeks/nerds in my school played, as far as I know. And most of my schools have always been predominantly Black, so there was no representation. (I did do a lot of text based RPing on AOL tho)

  @aklingus There was like a 6 month period in the mid 90s where AOL chat rooms were a fun place to hang out… and when you started a convo with someone you’d have to rapid fire emails back and forth because there was no private chat or instant message system

  @cclareMDMPH Two. I never had an AOL address.

  @Doc_Harding @Nerienis Perhaps their sudden popularity (and unprepared infrastructure) will destroy their success, like it did AOL back in the day with the busy-signal fiasco. 🫤

  Were talking about “What cultural item are you older than” at work. We’re slow. So far, I’m older than MTv, AOL and VHS cassettes. This is a fun game to make me feel like I AM ACTUALLY THE OLDEST IN THE STORE. I don’t like this game... I’m taking my slap wraps and going home.

  @MapQuest Who ******** even know your app exists anymore If you needed to show how ******* retarded your company is You just did it You were forgotten around the AOL timeline ******* obsolescent retards

  @CliveSimpson63 Holy crap. You guys had AOL too? I knew you had access to the internet because I talked to many Brits back then. I guess it just never occurred to me y’all were using AOL as well! LOL

  Beyond the usual senior leadership problems at AOL that doomed Mapquest, there was another: channel conflict. Mapquest had a LOB that was store locators. They would sell widgets to retailers and other businesses that they could put on their own sites. Split personalities like that are always tough. When one side is paying the bills (store locator) it's hard to ship the future.

  AOL never asked me for more storage and I have emails for over 20 years….. why Gmail gotta do me like that 😫

  @AntiEVidiots When EVs were niche, driving one was like being part of a community with a shared secret. Similar to being on the internet in the early 1990s, before the AOL hordes turned up with their poor netiquette.

  @LitterboxComics I was a new dad trying to research way to help my wife. Been trolling the depths of the internet for fun since AOL was a thing. I was not prepared for the deprivation and inhumanity I found in online parenting forums.

  I’m reading Kara Swisher’s book about AOL which came out in 1999, and the tone of the book is like “this is the biggest company in the world! Nothing will take them down!”

  @MorlockP Blue collar business is fascinating to me because it's relatively simple (not easy, the work is hard) to succeed in it. Yet so many become broke or never make it. Then you see why. AOL email addresses, people who don't show up on time, never returning sales lead calls. Etc.

  The truth is stranger. Long ago in the 90's there was still magic in the world every time you wanted to get on the internet you had to electrocute one fairy. Just one. Unfortunately disconnects were an issue. Slowly, one connection at a time, we fed all of the magic creatures into the gaping maw of oblivion to power our ICQ chats and AOL instant messengers. At least until Human Energy Update 3.9 Service Pack 2. Now every time you log in you just lose a little bit of your own soul, no fairy deaths required.
