AOL Time Warner Merger

 

            
             AOL Time Warner is the world's leader in Internet technologies, e-commerce services, interactive services, and web brands. AOL started up in 1985 and initially offered limited online services for then a relatively small market of personal computer users. Today, it serves more than 27 million members of its flagship AOL service, along with more than 2.8 million CompuServe members, 80 million registered users of ICQ, and more than 34 million registered users of the Netscape.com service. AOL also operates some of the most popular services on the World Wide Web, including Map Quest, AOL Instant Messenger, AOL MovieFone, Spinner.com and Null Soft's Winamp, and Digital City, Inc. With its major focus on providing convenient easy-to-use services for mass-market consumers, AOL has played a major role in creating the consumer online experience worldwide, and is leading the development of the next generation Internet. With this focus on consumers, AOL seeks to build a global standard as central to people's lives as the telephone or television and perhaps even more valuable. Through its strategic alliance with Sun Microsystems, the company develops and offers easy-to-deploy, end-to-end e-commerce and enterprise solutions for companies operating in the net economy. AOL has always been known for providing the most convenient and easiest-to-use interactive service available. The Company pioneered technologies like Keywords for simple navigation, and the Buddy List to enable instant messaging by showing, which of member's contacts are online. The flagship service offers members a complete package of online features, including the popular My Calendar to organize busy schedules, You've Got Pictures to view and share family photographs online, a built-in multimedia player to enjoy the Web's growing trove of rich audio and video content; and much more. The service can be accessed using any high-speed connection, or by dial-up connections from virtually anywhere in the world.
