It’s about time AOL got onboard. I’m curious though, if they are going this route, what the rest of the strategy will be. Will they stick it out or is this bold move as far as they’ll take it? AOL needed to do something, this seems like the right direction.

Looks like the AOL Search functionality may be getting supercharged via its the Google-AOL partnership.</p> I noticed that with the Google Toolbar plugin on IE 6, past search terms from Google are now supplanted in the AOL search box?
