  @bmoredownbeats I’m “sent AOL IMs via SMS text” years old. And I couldn’t continue reading b. Too many typos in their headlines. Such a bad publication.

  @13banger83 @MrCumbria80 @davemeltzerWON Time Warner that owned them . The AOL deal wasn’t finalized until a little over a month before WCW was sold. I’m sure the 24 months when the deal was being worked out didn’t help but AOL was buying a 150+ billion dollar company. The already failing WCW wasn’t a huge factor

  @Gpersonobserver @woofknight You're old. 😬 I missed the AOL address (could had have one, but didn't), never used a water bed or paper mat (what was that for???) and had no checkbook (paid mostly cash).

  Researchers tracked 344,753 websites over 18 months to map where American attention actually goes online. The answer is email. Gmail alone is 16% of all desktop time. Add Yahoo, Outlook, and AOL, and inboxes eat nearly a quarter of every hour Americans spend at a computer. That's double the combined total of Facebook, X, Reddit, Instagram, Discord, and WhatsApp. The legacy numbers are the wild part. Yahoo Mail, at 3.71%, gets more attention than ChatGPT, Reddit, and Netflix combined. AOL Mail, a service most people assume died with dial-up, beats Instagram and Discord combined. Yahoo still has roughly 225 million active mail users, skewing Gen X and Boomer: people who opened an account in 1999 and never saw a reason to leave. Google Search sits at just 2.33%. The front door of the entire internet gets less time than Yahoo's inbox, because search is engineered to end fast. Every second you spend on a results page is a second Google failed. The chart measures desktop, which explains the shape. Your phone is where you play. Your computer is where you work. And the work of being an American in 2026, the bills, the receipts, the school notices, the job applications, still runs through a protocol invented in 1971. Strip away 30 years of apps and the desktop internet is a post office with better graphics.

  @mar70854f @nemywtf @itskwasi You have to get an undergraduate degree before you go for a PHD retard Zuck and gates were mega geniuses going to harvard. Zuck had a job offer from AOL in high school. Much different from 99.9% of you retards who say “well an immaterial amount of rich people don’t have degrees”

  @woofknight 19. Only one I’m missing is the AOL address - I never used AOL despite them sending me many complementary disks, I was into weirder and more obscure BBSes.

  Shotty product mockups: • Old AOL email addresses. • People who never open emails. • Filtering bad leads manually after opt-in. Professional product mockups: • Custom domains. • Reputable brands in adjacent markets • People that actually open and read your emails. The difference is night and day.

  Hear me out... what if all the bad **** that's ever happened to you started when you didn't forward that chain letter you got in your AOL email in 1998?
