AOL still exists? Wow.
AOL has been riding the profits from its dying dialup business to relaunch itself as an internet content and advertising business. They actually have a fairly large stable of brands besides their own Autos or Shopping channels. Poking around their corporate site, here is a list of sites they operate: 5min, advertising, about.me, adtech, AIM, autoblog, cambio, citysbest, comicsalliance, dailyfinance, engadget, everydayhealth, gadling, games, giseleandthegreenteam, goodnewsnetwork, goviral, holidash,huffington post, joystiq, jsyk, kitchendaily, mapquest, mmafighting, moviefone, noisecreep, patch, pawnation, pictela, seed, shortcuts, shoutcast, slashcontrol, smckids, spinner, streampad, studionow, stylist, theboombox, theboot, techcrunch, tuaw, tuvozentuvida, winamp, wow and probably a bunch of others I couldn't find. While some of these might not be top of mind, combined they represent a huge pile of pageviews and traffic. There is also a nice set of investments in new sties tracked on crunchbase: http://www.crunchbase.com/financial-organization/aol-ventures
