Talk:America Online

From iA wiki

Not just an ISP, a content provider and content distributor.. discuss other enterprizes.. discuss history, discuss impact. Put the interesting stuff on anti-AOL -- Sy

• Should also note that it's supposed to be unlawful to be both a provider and distributor of news. -- Sy 18:52, 26 Nov 2004 (GMT)

• Are you sure they own Yahoo? I looked around but couldn't find any evidence that they do. Just this 1999 article that may be out of date. webfork

• • Hmm, I'm reasonably sure, but not definite. I wonder if there is a website devoted to documenting the companies and projects aol has borged. It might be best to remove the Yahoo reference if it's not certain. -- Sy

• They own a bit of Google: http://www.seobook.com/archives/000233.shtml
• they own a minority stake in Kayak Software.

AOL is absolute crap. Their program doesnt work, and it crashes 3 times out of 2 when you connect to the internet. When you try to use their AOL help, the 'people' tell you that the best thing you can do is to reinstall AOL. dont use it. GalacticDefenders.8m.com
