This just a list of AOL services for future reference that we may (likely) want to restore or make something similar. Things which are considered certain like the AOL online service, AIM, ICQ, and Q-Link are not included.
Primary (Sooner)
- AOL Mail - No details yet. Need web site(s) for reference.
- AOL Hometown - No details yet. Need web site(s) for reference.
- AOL News - No details yet other than it may be cool to call it Townsend, though that could also be a forum name. Need web site(s) for reference.
- AIM Expressions - For the "built-in" AIM client within AOL, these may be separate from AIM expressions in format. Need web site(s) for reference.
Channels
- Weather - Will require users to enter postal code or initially maybe just use ipGeo. Additionally centralisation of this service could be used to provide the data for weather alerts in AIM and temperature on AOL Welcome.
Secondary (Later)
- You've Got Pictures - No details yet. Need web site(s) for reference.
Tertiary (Maybe)
- AOL Phone - No details yet, other than primarily referenced in AIM via the subscription TLV, but base service and all that are unknown, though almost certainly outsourced or built upon other technology. Need web site(s) for reference.
Quartary (Unlikely)
As in probably not, but listed here just for reference, maybe things will change in the future or it might be merged with another service, or provide ideas for new ones.
- AOL Finance - Only if we can just pipe it in from some place else, probably not S&P ComStock (lol). Need web site(s) for reference.
Domains
Some interesting domains it may or may not worth be investigating.
- hp-consumer.myaol.jp - When installing AIM 6, Japanese edition, it kept trying to load a window to this URL. Nothing else I saw made me think it was HP-branded, so perhaps HP means something else, or that window was as much work as the client team wanted to put into branding.
