Wild and crazy, eh? Apparently these folks think they can make it on advertising revenues!?! Everybody know that won't work, right??

Do read the fine print tho. They will sell you some proprietary software + "setup" charge that adds up to around $90.00 before you get your free access going. And your free access is for life...the shorter of yours or theirs.

You know, maybe AOL could pump up their bottom line by trying some of this advertising...

Next topic. Why didn't AOL stock crater on lawsuit news?

Opinions?
