Here's something for advertisers to think about.
<<The problem began at 11:30 a.m. PT, AOL spokesman Rich D'Amato said. People who already were online were able to remain online, he said, but they are unable to use email. No one has been booted from the system during the partial outage, D'Amato said. "We've had tens of thousands of users on during this period," he said.>>
"Tens of thousands"? As in 20,000, 30,000, 40,000? So, in other words, during the middle of the day, which is a busy time for the internet, the number of eyeballs logged on to AOL were only in the tens of thousands. That's an audience the size of a small cable television station.
Yeah, AOL is a real media powerhouse. |
