AOL



  • In late 2006, AOL began offering free and unlimited digital picture storage for both free and paid accounts. Original resolutions are preserved, and an ActiveX control provides a drag-n-drop interface within web browsers, permitting users to drop an entire folder of photos into the web page to upload them.
  • On October 4, 2006, AOL released a free Internet suite called OpenRide, which combines a web browser, instant messenger, email client and media player.
  • On March 13, 2008, AOL purchased the popular networking site Bebo for $850m (£417m).
