When myAOL launched just over a year ago, our goal was to open up the platform to allow other companies, startups and independent developers across the world to build widgets for the site, populating myAOL with content and functionality that would hold personal appeal across broad and niche audiences. It took a little longer than we hoped (rolling out myAOL in 25 countries took up a bit of our time!) but... today we are thrilled to announce the launch of the new open developer site at: http://dev.my.aol.com.
The new site offers developers links to information and tools for building gadgets and the opportunity to submit existing gadgets to share via the myAOL Gadget Gallery, which already includes many gadgets built by the myAOL team, widget factories, and third-party developers.
Working with developers from Google and other members of the OpenSocial community to adopt the gadget spec ensures that developers with existing gadgets are able to submit them to the myAOL Gallery, and makes it easy for widget factories to offer their developer communities a simple way to submit their work as well. For example, yourminis is now live with the ability to easily add any of their widgets to a myAOL page or submit them to the myAOL Gallery.
CONGRATULATIONS to the entire myAOL team – from Mountain View to Bangalore to Dulles!
THANK YOU to our colleagues at Google who have been so helpful throughout the process.
Our combined efforts have resulted in a variety of fun gadgets for the myAOL audience (with many more on the way!) and the creation of a site that will allow us to fill myAOL with more choices and more great content. Check out our post on the opensocial blog too!

4. Launch the internet from a single page and get the most of it, through this website www.visitthebest.com
Idea of this website is to create an ideal homepage for internet users. You will find the most of the stuff you would normally use everyday, right at your desktop. It is packed with useful stuff.
Pick up your favourite search engine…Google, Yahoo, Live search, or use the fantastic encyclopaedias Wikipedia,Answers.com, about.com etc. They all cleverly placed for your convenience.
Get your email (whatever may be) with a single click. If you are keen on News, save your time and directly click the most popular online newspapers links displayed.
It gives best websites guide in various categories. For example if you are looking for best websites for health related information, you would find it through the “a-z category”.
Under “Site of the day” you will see amazing, hard to miss websites that you may not be aware of.
Widget section has lots useful widgets. It is customisable. You pick which one you want to use and delete if you don’t want it anymore.
It makes your life so much easy, if you use this as your homepage. Save time and get the best out of internet. http://www.visitthebest.com

has moved to: http://win4sports.com
When AOL shut down, we were forced to move. Now it is hard to fine our web site. Very disappointing.
WIN SPORTS FREE SOFTWARE now provides a large variety of sports software absolutely free to download from their website. This software previously had been sold for hundreds of dollars, and is used throughout the world. There is software for: tennis/racquetball tournaments, leagues, double elimination, ladders, ranking, rating, scheduling facilities and personnel, databases.

6. very informative...
well I just moved in a new neighborhood, i was searching for property to rent in E2 for quite some time and i accidentally found this amazing website a la maison international with loads and loads of information about property to rent in E2 and its vicinity. I really like my new house. By the way my wife too dragged me out for some fresh air today early morning, although i am not of a morning person but i have to admit i really enjoyed it. i found links on your page very useful.

11. I like how the whole myaol community has grown. For a while I thought the AOL empire was actually collapsing. We all remember those AOL CDs everywhere, but they have some sweet gadgets now too. I think there is a tab for getting the AOL gadgets off your homepage if you don't want to see them, but don't know exactly how.

20. I love how AOL continues to come out with great stuff even after being on the scene for so long. I am actually surprised they are keeping their heads above water but am very glad for it at the same time.
