AOL Keyword? 2002-11-03 10:16:12


For years now, I've always seen commercials where viewers are informed of the "AOL Keyword". I have always wondered, what happens when you enter the keyword "NEWGROUNDS"? Does it take you to newgrounds.com?

I avoid AOL like the plague, so I have never gotten an answer to this question. I have always meant to ask, however. So... What happens when you enter the AOL keyword, "NEWGROUNDS"?

If you type in the word Newgrounds into the AL keyword search, it goes to a search engine......which has www.newgrounds.com as its first link

if that makes any sense

I have cable modem. I mean who uses AOL. I mean aol costs like 23 bucks a month I have cable modem and I only pay like ten bucks more. If you have aol you suck. But I think if you type in Newgrounds in keywords youmight see this site. I mean before High speed internet people use dail up.

If aol doesnt recognise a keyword doesnt it just do a search for what ever you typed in

AOL!? BWAHAHAHA! What kind of Idiot uses AOL?! I mean, come on, it would obviously go to a search and find NG...but why would any one go to a AOL keyword place and type in Newgrounds if they didnt already know about NG? The only thing even close to cool about AOL is AIM!

I hope aol dies soon. High speed internet is so affordable. Unless you are a poor piece of crap.

HEHEHE. Aol is so gay. I hate the newist uk advert. This guy says on it "before we switched to aol we didnt know what we were missing. It has free email and is so easy to use. Now wonder their number 1.". Get broadband like me for fuck sake!

On my grandads computer who has aol I found out how keywords work. Companys pay aol to have a keyword link to their site. Its like buying a .com domain to like to your site. If a keyword is unregistered it just searches for that word.

(my grandad is one of those people that didnt realise there was anything on the internet apart form aol! He just looked at all the news and sections on the aol homepage. To surf the web you have to find the small "surf web" button somewhere which pops up another window where you put in web addresses.

My tip for aol users is to start up aol and when you have connected minimize the aol window and open up internet explorer and use that.
