I remember we use to throw those AOL discs around like frisbees. They use to mail you a thousand of those things.

Netflix as a DVD rental service at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCQCWA-e6gI&t=262">4:22</a>. Little did it know what it would become 😂

Before texting, you rushed home from school to get on AIM with your friends. Screen names, away messages, buddy icons. Can’t think of my pre-teen/early teen years without AIM

The merger made no sense. Time Warner never needed AOL. It was as if Henry Ford bought horse and carriage companies.

AOL was my childhood. "Get off that dang computer" since I was on AOL dialup. Older millennials know the struggle. <br>This company use to be big enough to buy some of its competitors. It probably could have originally bought Amazon when it came out when you look back.

Let me save you about 13 minutes. AOL was last to broadband. That killed it. End of story.

As for the game idea, aol was ahead of their time. Should have came back to the original idea, they would have made a fortune.
