AOL Outage in Herndon, Fairfax County, Virginia

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.

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.

This time in the house gives me CLARITY... idk how people are upset.. Yes I get out, then I lock down... and process.. People got “dial up” processors or something, ol AOL brains... Help yourself & your next move at this time

@robertoblake I went to college pre internet. We had large computers with floppy disks, DOS command prompt, loud, vibrating dot matrix printers and slow screechy modems. This was before Windows and IE. Before email. Before AOL. Before NETZERO. Before Yahoo Messenger.

5 Jobs I’ve had: 1. Intern / Mascot @ABC Kidzine on @AOL 2. Catering Staff at countless DC Caterers 3. Founder / Owner of JAM Productions and the Exchange VIPs 4. Sales/Service at @CustomInk 5. All things SEO @Appian

@jrhuddles @verge Every time a boomer asks if I want my online history held against me, they are likely talking about stupid things I probably said, but I think back to my Geocities FF7 fansite (lots of copyright infringement, I'm sure) and being accused of god-moding in an AOL Marvel Sim chat.

Jin Ling. Come help me guess Wei Wuxian's AOL password

should i ignore potential copyright problems and release my aol set on spotify n stuff maybe i should remove all the sound clips from the movie?

@misantroopje @CarshenahJ For me, people couldn't get through with phone calls when I was online. There were times my cousin would hop on AOL messenger and tell me to get ******** off the internet so he can call me lol

@choomnice If they are both single, then what is the issue? I’ve been a Yang Zi fan since the AOL, and I always want her to be happy. It’s sad she can’t even be free in her own private space, and there are those bringing her down by throwing malice on what can easily happen between friends.

@DavidblogerICBW We were still learning so much about email and the Internet back then; heck, the government didn't even have servers set up during Powell's tenure. If I remember correctly, he used an AOL email address because of that. The government was slow to get on that bandwagon.

@PokemonTCGDrops Does the customer support email end with @ aol .com? Mans running his site off DSL connection on a clear green iMac from 2002.

@CatieOsaurus Two types of kids: those who make a cool curtain with AOL discs and those who get into disc fights with their friends, throwing them at each other and pretending they’re the bad guy in the Dolph Lundgren movie I Come in Peace

Least likely: Sure, AOL fought. But they lost. Most likely: No packaged internet portal gaming service ended up doing well in the long run. All of them failed and the open model of the internet won.

@MiamiMoleMan On the flip side my kids will never know the horror of having their parents read the transcripts with someone from AOL support explaining why we are banned

@engineers_feed AOL getting access to Usenet was pretty god awful. Give me, give me, give me, me too, me too, me too.
