AOL's CEO bullish on 8.0
Yes, you read that right... not any other word you might associate with AOL ;)
Jonathan Miller, the newly appointed CEO of America Online, made his first public address Thursday, saying the company's forthcoming AOL 8.0 product will mark a significant turning point for the embattled AOL Time Warner division.
Calling 8.0 the "most important introduction" in AOL's lifespan, Miller stressed that the upcoming version of AOL will include a handful of new features such as exclusive entertainment programming, better customization of the service, and new interactive chat rooms.
"Our commitment to broadband is clear and unwavering," Miller told a sparse crowd at the annual Internet World conference.
The company's rhetoric during its perennial upgrades for AOL has consistently centered around the idea of improving the service based on what its members demand. However this time around, the new features touted by Miller remain unclear.
