  @MAnneAmbrose1 I still use my aol email address it’s coming up for 30 years now I have never tried contacting them, I do think the internet was nicer back then with chat rooms rather than just social media stuff, it was less superficial

  @Based_SpaceGoji Fun fact from the prehistory of the web: In the summer of 1993, when this movie came out, there were no web browsers. (Using AOL was nothing like surfing the web a few years later.) So there was no easy way to go online and look something up, and resolve a disagreement. For example... I knew at least two kids at my high school who were SURE those were pterodactyls flying away at the end. I was like, "Dude, they were pelicans. Why would the heroes be calmly watching and smiling at dinosaurs escaping the f---ing island?" But there was no way to convince them. No way to just go on a website and look it up, and show them. The fact is, before everyone had easy access to the web, life was full of really stupid little disagreements like that, especially when you were a kid. Did the kid from the Life Cereal commercials die from eating pop-rocks with Coke? Did Alfonso Ribeiro break his neck doing a headspin? For me, at least, those pelicans at the end of Jurassic Park were the last example of that particular kind of stupid argument. A year later, Netscape launched. One more thing... I always wondered if Spielberg heard stories of people mistaking those pelicans for pterodactyls, and was annoyed by it. Especially when I saw the sequel, and it ends with what is very, very clearly a pterodactyl spreading its wings in the sunlight. As if Spielberg was saying, "Here, dumbasses, THAT's a pterodactyl."

  Look at who bought it. Bending Spoons has acquired Evernote, WeTransfer, Meetup, Brightcove, Vimeo and AOL. The pattern never changes: buy a beloved product at a discount, cut costs hard, raise prices, and run it for profit instead of growth.

  This Week in Startups: August 3rd It's a wild one 👇 Airtable gets acquired by Bending Spoons for $1.28B. Once valued at $11B, now picked up at a fraction, the third brand-at-a-discount play this year after AOL and Eventbrite. Google’s AI leadership reshuffle. Demis Hassabis moves from CEO of DeepMind to Alphabet Chief Scientist. Nikita Bier steps down from X as Chief Product Officer. Revolut founder in line for a mega payout. Nik Storonsky’s incentive package could push his fortune to £57B if Revolut hits $200B valuation, not far-fetched after its latest secondary at $115B! SpaceX posted its first quarterly earnings. Revenue reached $7.8B (nearly 2x YoY, beating estimates).

  @hthieblot Excite chat was awesome. But PEAK for me using Progs in the AOL 3.0 days. I would go into chat rooms and if someone was rude, I would enter their screen name into my prog, it would send them an IM and all they would hear is “Goodbye” and then they would be logged off for 45 minutes. I think it was called “dolphin” or something.

  I still sometimes come across people who think that AI is a bad search engine that makes bad text and bad pictures, which is kind of like looking at the internet in 1997 and think it’s about AOL chat rooms. – Benedict Evans

  MSP prospecting tip: look for businesses still on Yahoo/AOL email, no SSL on the site, hosting on SquareSpace or Wix. That combination means no in-house IT, no enterprise vendor, zero compliance posture. The cleanest signal you can find.
