Totally cool. More info.

A decade ago, AOL was buying Time Warner for $182 billion in stock and debt.

Today, AOL is doing everything they can to maximize whatever brand loyalty they have left — like asking those who log on to their AOL mail via the Web to fan them on Facebook. (See screenshot above.)

The AOL mail page on Facebook has 15,439 fans.

Meanwhile, the Dear Mr. Monopoly and Mr. Pringles, you have such epic moustaches page has 85,725 fans.

Just sayin’.

Today’s dayorder: time change. I sorta understand how it all happens, but every time we have to move the clocks back or forward, it’s still a little creepy to wake up and find my computers and several other devices have already taken care of it.

Over on his excellent blog The Daily Dish, Andrew Sullivan occasionally posts a “mental health break.” The other day he posted this terrific YouTube video, which is dedicated in part to noir icon Ann Savage. The music is “Angel” by Massive Attack. Be sure to read the notes to see the nearly three-dozen movies incorporated into this 6:41 clip.  I wish some of these movies were on today; given the rainy, windy weather, it’s a good day to stay in bed and watch a few of them.
