AOL Cuts More Products Developed in Dulles - washingtonpost.com: "'There was a time at AOL when the strength of our aggregate portfolio of products more than compensated for the weakness of an underperforming product,' Conroy wrote. 'The realities of the industry and market shifts in online advertising no longer make that possible. Simply put, every product makes a direct impact on our bottom line.'
Lost among the news of cuts have been a number of positive developments for AOL -- a fact that has frustrated top AOL executives. AOL has experienced strong growth in several areas: Its e-mail products have overcome Microsoft's Hotmail as the No. 2 online e-mail service, after Yahoo Mail. Truveo, its new online video search, is getting tens of millions of visits per month. And AOL's radio application and instant messenger have rocketed to near the top of most-downloaded lists for Apple's new iPhone."
