  @ThreeUK Sort your **** mobile broadband network out in South Manchester. I had better service with my AOL rom disc and dial up in Y2K.

  @ericbrownzzz I don't know if this was intended, but I like the linkage b/w Online America and AoL (A.rchers o.f L.oaf and America Online; an internet service from when Archers were active). AoL: Web in front. But in back of web, some chat rooms with three people in them.

  LISTSERV Was The Place To Be In 1993! Just after dial up BBSs and just before USENET my X-like place where I went “viral” was LISTSERV. I was on over 1000 active lists. I of course was on forums on CompuServe and AOL, but LISTERV was push and not pull. It was magic! I would write there like I posted here today. There was zero spam and the highest IQs in the world just a list email away. In my Eudora archives (the best email client ever made) I have saved the results of all my lists saved. Before my tape find, I was happy I saved the Eudora in zipped PKG files. One LISTSERV I was on had 1000s of subscribers and it is where I learned of so many things months before it was news. In the 1990s I wrote the first known AI (expert system) for email, to produce a morning “Newspaper” digest I would actually have automatically printed out to read at breakfast. The AI would have knowledge of what I wanted and produced the summaries and headlines. It went viral on some of my lists I was on and it used Eudora mailbox files to access the data. Many like minded geeks like me used the software and one made a LISTSERV out of his output as a meta way to use what he called THE ULTIMATE NEWS LISTSERV. Since posting on my tapes yesterday two folks reached out to me to share their archives! I am not sure if there is overlap, but anyone with data like this, please let me know! Folks we have a mother-load here and I know we will find new data perhaps not seen since it bounced though LISTSERV. Your support made this happen. Thank you.

  @lilhousgreendor 18. Never had an AOL address. What is a paper mat?

  None of them have ever rung me. I got to the MSN point, adding people. I never got to the AOL AIM level they were all on. No one would share the lists with me.

  @Annie__Bee Outlook, AOL, Live, Gmail, X, Yahoo -all major co's have been hacked. To regain a hacked acct. try to login, with the last email address you used, you'll have to change the password, have it sent to you, change password.

  key w/ reading older material like this (in QT), is a deep understanding of business models someone new would look at this and say, “why do I care about AOL” I prob would've said the same at a younger age but there's two errors, one is viewing everything ex post vs ex ante (conflating process vs outcome), the second is underestimating how sharp markets are everything is a DCF, and every business model can be mapped to an income statement + fcfs so in that light, nothing is ever really new, nor is nothing ever really old esp during dot com era, if you go back today and read a lot of initiations/bull case takes, they’re far from outrageous, and many went on to prove correct albeit on the wrong time horizon (ie took 10+ years instead of 3-5) AOL's revenue went from $425M in 1995, to nearly $5B in 1999 and ~$1B in earnings/CFO when a company is growing revs that fast, u can make a DCF work for the piece below, I don’t know tech, so I can’t do this exercise for something like AOL - but in other sectors, u can usually bank on the same principles, just with a tighter range of outcomes…why it never hurts to keep running case studies + keep feeding the pattern recognition machine.
