There have been a ton of stories out since yesterday that Time Warner is planning to split up AOL into a subscription/dialup business and an advertising/platform business. This news has been anticipated for a while, and so is welcome finally. As a former AOLer, I'm glad to see the decision finally broad forward, though it's probably 4-5 years waaaaay too late.
