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.

Ok you new generation kids: What is AOL, and what did it used to stand for? What service did AOL have until recently? Do you know what a "dial up" is? Submit your answers below.

@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

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.

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)

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.

@ESPN your iPad app is literally one of the worst playback devices I have ever used. It’s like watching video on a 1994 AOL dial up. app.

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

banned. It happened to me over 10 years ago on the old #AOL travel message bds. I simply set up my own website & never involved myself with travel bds again. Some of the bullies became monitors on travel advisor's bds. W/o proper monitoring, sites become the domains of bullies.

@MysterySolvent A fart horn. A small confederate flag & lapel pin (she would never ever wear in public.) And, the phone numbers of, Ron Watkins - "Q", Jim Watkins, AOL emails & Reddit names. Also, Madison Cawthorn's mothers cell.

@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.

@sspengem I feel so old. Just tried out mastodon and my god, I cannot do this all over again. AOL, Friendster, myspace, facebook, twitter. Want to throw it all in the garbage and meet in a big town square for a coffee face to face with actual human beings.

@MerckxProject As for depending on the site to boost signal, of course they are. Twitter is the front page of the internet the way yahoo or google used to be and aol before it. As I said the Washington post subscription base is dwarfed by twitter and it’s user base

@Fivemil @CryptoLawyerz @pmarca As I recall he was originally trying to pitch a video game to Nintendo but thankfully in the end AOL was in the market to piss away it’s shareholders money on bad acquisitions like Netscape and Time Warner.

@cemerick AOL's problem was that it wasn't publicly hosted and users didn't control their UX. That let you guys turn every ******* website into another app with a big red rope outside that said "you must be smart enough to figure out how to use this" You created so much inequality

@Calistadny "The crypto mining business is having difficulty" It's because crypto mining itself is unnecessary. Proof of stake is the second generation of crypto Blockchain. Faster & green no miners needed. Bitcoin will end up being the AOL of crypto. Will never see 20,000 again

@FomonJosh @Azi @jack He knew Twitter wasn't sustainable. Musk is just taking it down faster. It will eventually be like AOL or Yahoo. And something new will fill in the void. Hopefully not owned by a fascist regime.

@robwein @3YearLetterman @AOC Whoa there, Bobby Winnie…….don’t bash women OR COACH. Take a page outa coach’s playbook….he’s a big lover of women. He has a paid off waterbed too. Suggest you issue an apology to AOL before she asks the US House of Parliament to ban all yore anti-women books.

@Muskelsmurf Nintendo in general has a very bad online presence. Their E Shop is slower than the AOL sign in dial up days
