America Online is now AOL
MUMBAI: After 15 years, AOL announced that it is retiring the name America Online and will now officially be known as AOL.
AOL Chairman and CEO Jon Miller said, “Our company long ago accomplished the mission implied by our old name … we literally got America online. Our new corporate identity better reflects our expanded mission – to make everyone’s online experience better. Plus, consumers in the U.S. and around the world already know us by our initials.”
The legal structure of AOL has also changed, from a corporation to a limited liability company.
