@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.

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)

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

@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.

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.

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.

@AOL Why have I been seeing “We’re having trouble connecting with our servers. Please try again later,” for about a day now?

@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.

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.

@ebooksyearn Even their status-title “network” is anachronistic in the modern telecom world. They’re like AOL back when it was a closed ecosystem.

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

@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

@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. 🫤

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)

@David_____1 @phl43 “It,” by which I’m assuming you mean GPT-4 and/or DALL-E, is the equivalent of the dial-up AOL version of the internet. In <20 years, **** will get very weird.

Twitter doesn't work as a paid service. The whole point is it was so widespread cause it's free. This is the first step toward it being one. Go look at AOL if you feel it's not possible.

So, Uber and Lyft are having some trouble. I hope they work it out. But companies that break the business model don’t always survive. AOL is the best example but there are many others.

The company failed to develop its own social media platform or acquire existing platforms, such as Facebook or MySpace. Instead, AOL focused on its existing business model of providing dial-up internet service and online content and failed to pivot to social media and UGC.

AOL (America Online) was once a dominant player in the internet service provider and online content industry. The company was known for its innovative dial-up internet service, as well as its popular online chat rooms and email platform.

Someone smarter than me pointed out that during their time AOL, Yahoo, and cie felt too big to fail, but we are feeling social 2.0 exhaustion. Got a feeling that semi-public/semi-private platforms that'll give extensive privacy features will come out as winners out of this.
