Today I got another AOL Tech who does confirm the worst, that their  
Hometown/FTP Space service will end on Oct 31.

So, now you are down to a 50/50 choice.  One is correct and one is not. 
  Just like calling the DMV, or the IRS.

[Phono-L] Rumor on AOL their Hometown

2008-10-16 Thread allena...@aol.com
Hi
 
as I  have been informed that AOL is closing down and deleting all  uploaded 
 materials that you may have entrusted to their service. End  date  is 
October 31.

 
 This is apparently a rumor (Urban Legend?). I just called AOL and  asked 
about it. They deny any changes to their Hometown or FTP sites for each  
member. 
I have seen the above rumor on a Blog or two, but not on any  official AOL 
Site where we would expect to see it - if it were true.

The non believers can always perform the ultimate test, leave everything 
sit until 11/01/08 and then check and see if its still there.

AOL operates like the government, right hand has no idea what the left 
is doing.

 hmmm... that certainly seems to be true then. I wonder why their own (AOL)  
 Techs seem unaware? I am a paying customer of AOL, so maybe there are 
 different 
  levels - compared with those who have it free?

The message first appeared on the top of my personal AOL home page. Unless 
some hacker is funning us. It's still showing up in the rotation of my site.
