The whole site is terrible. When AT&T Worldnet was still in charge, that
team of developers would listen to us subscribers and actually implement
changes from good advice. They turned it over to "corporate" in October
and the whole mess has gone downhill fast. I can't show you the new
large, animated Flash ads right in the middle of your Webmail Inbox.

Use to be a Worldnet-er back in the mid 90's... it was long distance
$.35/minute call. Them were the days of dash browsing after 11:00pm when
rate was only $.11, dump downloads of email and clicking Netscape's
handy "offline" icon... Great advancement today...no broadband but at
least not a toll call. :-\

That's a good example for those who argue, "But X's page must be done
right -- it's a biiiig company!" :)

I used to have it, but I dropped it so that I could read Wikipedia.

I was wondering what it was.
