I went with ElephantDrive after reading about it at Black Enterprise here: &lt;a href="http://www.blackenterprise.com/cms/exclusivesopen.aspx?id=4332" rel="nofollow"&gt;http://www.blackenterprise.com/cms/exclusivesop...&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Maybe Earthlink will do the same for AOL dial up folks?</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Alan</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 06 Aug 2008 19:03:24 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Time Warner Splitting AOL, Preparing for Possible Sale</title><link>http://www.blackweb20.com/2008/08/06/time-warner-splitting-aol-preparing-for-possible-sale/#comment-5152182</link><description>I can't see how people are still using AOL. The walled garden of the internet may be crumbling down.  I am sure they will sell off the dial-up internet division to some one like Earthlink, People PC or another company still doing dial-up. Even though dial-up is a failing business model even if you are trying to target people in outlying areas because broadband is too accessible.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Earthlink will soon be phasing out their dial-up as well and everybody on it will be forced to upgrade. More than likely around the time television stops broadcasting in analog.</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Myron McDaniel</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 06 Aug 2008 17:48:53 -0000</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
