  @hthieblot AOL had chat rooms. And way back then, they had **** rooms- it was disgusting. They didn’t take them down. It’s unreal these vile humans walk the Earth. And it’s still happening

  @johncardillo 1) No you didn't win, and the court records show it 2) Still not my name 3) Let's dig into your stupid claims even as they are. Your left screenshot, which I already went and pulled from the courts, shows the case was dismissed due to identity theft, NOT a judgement (see first attachment). Congratulations, John, you just committed defamation against that man. 4) Your second screenshot defeats itself. I've went ahead and marked it up for you (see 2nd attachment). You keep posting a WITHDRAWAL of an attempt. Now I know you don't know what that means since your FICO score is sub-500 and you can't buy a house, but that means it was withdrawn due to error. If you do a public records search, the bank in question stated that the note was sold between holding companies and the payments he was making weren't being properly applied to the new account, not that he wasn't paying. Meanwhile, there is nothing in the court history that says the judgement AOL got against you was dismissed or even satisfied. So you're lying. You're really bad at this.

  FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE AN OPEN LETTER TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF MYSPACE Cache Ventures ("Cache"), beneficial owner of zero (0) shares of MySpace, today issued the following letter to the Board of Directors of MySpace, c/o Tim Vanderhook and Chris Vanderhook. Dear Members of the Board, We write to formally express our interest in acquiring, partnering on, or otherwise assuming operational stewardship of MySpace. I. BACKGROUND Cache has sought to engage with the Board privately on twelve (12) prior occasions. The Board has elected not to respond. For the record: all twelve messages were delivered. None bounced. Cache operates an email verification company. We are in a position to confirm this. We therefore proceed publicly, as is customary. II. RATIONALE On July 31, the Board publicly confirmed that it still owns MySpace, considers itself a steward of the brand, and intends to relaunch, pending the right time. Cache respectfully submits that the right time was approximately eleven years ago, and that the second-best time is Tuesday. We further note that today, Bending Spoons, owner of Evernote, WeTransfer, Vimeo, Eventbrite and AOL, and which has never sold a material business, announced the $1.285 billion acquisition of Airtable, a company the market valued at $11 billion in 2021. The market for beloved internet brands that stopped compounding is now competitive. MySpace is the most valuable unmanaged asset remaining in it. III. PROPOSAL Cache is prepared to: (a) acquire MySpace outright; (b) partner on the relaunch; or (c) enter a joint venture in which the Board retains control and Cache assumes the operating burden. Cache has no fund, no investment committee, and no obligation to consult anyone before signing. This is submitted as a feature. Let Cache be the Bending Spoons to your MySpace. IV. CONCLUSION The brand does not need saving. It needs someone whose entire job is waking up and running it. We remain reachable at the same address that has now worked twelve consecutive times. Sincerely, Sean Heilweil Cache Ventures — This communication does not constitute a tender offer, a solicitation, or a filing of any kind. Cache reserves the right to escalate this matter to a carousel. Shareholder input is invited on the following matter: if MySpace relaunched tomorrow, what is the one feature you would restore, and the one that should remain permanently in 2008? Top 8 nominations will be reviewed in the order received.

  @mitchellvii Have used a wide variety of software programs and media platforms over the past 40 years. And X is definitely the worst I've ever seen. An incredibly bad design poorly implemented. It's like something some high school students made for a school project. Can't even correct a typo in a post, which was something we could do easily back in the 90s. America Online (anyone remember AOL?) was more modern and sophisticated and with fewer bugs.

  @james_xond yes. Aol still have it, still use it. Everybody knows it, so why would I change it. Plus, I have a long, difficult last name. So, Gmail doesn't work for me.

  @y_molodtsov @TrungTPhan AOL was a NY based company. For 15 years, owned by Verizon and Yahoo. I don't buy that it's suddenly more cool to work on now. It's still an incredibly poorly designed home page and a predatory subscription service with old people buying crap they don't need.

  Bending Spoons is an Italian company that just bought Airtable for $1.2B 3 weeks after going public on Nasdaq. They already own AOL, Vimeo, Evernote, WeTransfer, Eventbrite, Brightcove, and about 50 other products. Revenue $1.3B in 2025, over $600M in Q1 2026 alone. Market cap briefly hit $25B. Their playbook: buy American tech icons at a fraction of their peak valuations, cut 75-85 percent of staff, raise prices, optimize margins. Evernote was bought for $200M after being valued at $1B. Eventbrite for $500M after IPOing at $1.76B. Vimeo for $1.38B. Now Airtable for $1.285B after being valued at $11.7B. The shopping list writes itself. Public SaaS is trading at 3-5x revenue, down from 18x in 2021. AI fear has crushed valuations across the board without distinguishing between companies that are actually threatened and those with deep workflow lock-in. Some categories that are mispriced right now: project management tools like Asana and Monday are trading at fractions of their peaks while still growing and serving enterprise customers. Collaboration and communication tools that have real user bases but stalled growth. Vertical SaaS companies where the software is deeply embedded in industry workflows that AI cannot easily replace. Developer tools with loyal communities but no path to the multiples their investors need. More European companies should be doing this. The 2021 vintage of overvalued American SaaS is a generational buying opportunity. These are real products with real revenue and real customers, just priced wrong because someone raised too much money at too high a valuation. The preference stack crushed the common holders and now the assets are available at good prices. Also, European companies have structural advantages here. Lower cost bases to operate these products and no pressure to hit Silicon Valley return multiples and operational discipline built from never having had the luxury of burning cash.
