When was the last time you heard "You've Got Mail"?
AOL was founded on May 24, 1985
For most computer nubies it was the access point to the internet...at modem's top speed of...56k data? I can't remember exactly.
Every day they sent everyone in the world a CD with 1 free month of AOL! (Well it seemed like it anyway.)
Many of us found Carl Swenlin, DecisionPoint and Traders-Talk Fearless Forecasters there, before Carl merged with StockCharts.com in 2013.
Traders-Talk Fearless Forecasters was originally operated as part of the Decision Point
Traders-Talk "is the home of the oldest continually run trading message board on the planet!"

Is META going the way of AOL?
Meta Platforms (META) - Get Meta Platforms Inc. Report is not doing well. The social-media giant, parent of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, has been sending alarming signals for several months.
It was ejected from the world's top 10 most valuable companies, and this year its market capitalization has fallen by nearly $545 billion.
During the third quarter, which is about to end, the shares have fallen some 15%, which by itself translated into a drop of $57.5 billion in market value from July through September.
Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg, who warned at the end of June that we were headed for the "one of the worst downturns that we've seen in recent history," has just made some announcements that suggest that Meta's short-term future faces a serious cloud cover and impending storm.
"It used to be the happiest sound ever"
