We are pleased to announce that myAOL has been launched to the beta community. You can access it by going to: my.aol.com. Please send any feedback or suggestions here and visit our message boards here.

The new myAOL is a personalization suite that offers a couple of different applications for you to enjoy. They include:

myAOLmyPage is a personalized home page offering access to content and applications from AOL, as well as third party applications and Websites. myPage offers a comprehensive widget gallery that provides access to popular content and features from across the Web, such as Google Gadgets.

myAOL MgnetMgnet (pronounced "Magnet") is a distinctive, visual content discovery and recommendations service designed to scout the Web for content based on personal preferences. Using "image clouds" that represent people, places, topics and events, users simply click on pictures of personal interest in order to receive personalized content. Leveraging the robust assets of partners such as Truveo, a leading video search engine, Mgnet delivers a variety of news, blogs and videos related to each image. You will be able to rate and save content, and later this year, be able to view and add recommendations from to your AIM buddies.

myAOL FavoritesFavorites is an updated feed reader that combines user feeds and bookmarks in one place, making it easy to find, manage and import feeds. Simple-to-use folders and shortcut keys allow you to quickly skim through and organize content.

In addition, a "Mix & Share" feature makes it simple to create and share feeds via e-mail, instant message or AIM. Integrated bookmarks offer a place to store favorite content that can be accessed from any Web-enabled computer.

New features and functionality will continue to be added to myAOL. Thousands of content sources, third party applications, snaggable widgets and social networking and sharing capabilities, as well as mobile and international access will be integrated throughout the beta period.

Here is an initial review of the product suite by TechCrunch.
