AOL is still alive.
We need to remedy this.

Anyone know of a good RSS reader with browser addon integration? I used a google reader extension that checked google reader each browser launch and displayed a blue button with the number of unread feeds on it. I need it to check RSS feeds at each launch of the browser. I haven't found anything yet.

Yeah, AOL is still around, they just don't send gazillions of internet access CDs around any more. Now they own a bunch of sites and operate an ad network. Apparently they STILL make money from dial-up (yes, really), but that's not what they're about these days. I guess the reader fits in... watch for ad display on sites that are in their network. It could also be a great research tool for content trends...

I have an AOL mail account, it's not that bad. I always use the web interface and once a month or so I load up the behemoth that is AOL 9.1 and archive my emails offline.

Another alternative worth noting is Noowit.com. Its based on AI and biology. Has the looks of clipboard and the brains to deliver the content that matters to you.
