Megaphone is the API and system developed in-house by AOL to be used exclusively with the chat system for AOL Desktop Gold.

Backend Language

Megaphone is completely coded in JS or Javascript. When a user accesses AOL Desktop Gold and goes to access the chat system, Megaphone is what powers it. Megaphone is loaded in the client as a minified version of itself, presumably so they can protect their code.

This allows to get the chat categories available.


Request parameters: “locale”: The language that you would like results to be displayed in.

Response: A list of categories.
