AOL is still alive
AOL is still alive, they’ve released a smart phone app for android on their newly revamped mobile site.
Does anyone really still use AOL? We’re as surprised as you are. Over a decade ago AOL was number 1, they missed the boat when they didn’t strive to take their dial-up GUI interface to a total web based solution that could have been bigger than FaceBook. Anyway, we just found it amusing they’re still out there and trying to make it work.
It looks like AOL is taking the route that Sega did. For years Sega was known as a game console/software company, and then later just turned to software. Now they make a great slew of games for multiple platforms, primarily Wii. I think AOL is smart in taking this route. In this industry you have to adapt, you have to be willing to change and sometimes those changes are drastic and sometimes those changes are harder to accept than they are to implement. In the end, change is good and I hope that they succeed.
Kudos to you AOL.
