Bring back AOL Kids & Radio KOL

The Issue

AOL Kids Only dates back to AOL 3.0 era. Back than kids could went to AOL Keyword Kids Only and small box would pop up with links. Homework,Chat Room,Message Boards and games. They could even check out Cartoon network page and Nickelodeon.

 

In 2003 Vice President of Kids Malcolm Bird Decided he would redesign the kids service to make it more cool and awesome. He named the service KOL. He created another idea to create live internet radio show Monday-Friday 3:00 PM-7:00 PM eastern time. He called his friend Rick Adams all the way from UK before you knew it Rick was on air plane to AOL HQ at 2200 AOL Way in Dullas VA. Over the years Million viewers would watch Radio KOL. DJ Rick interview many people, Played all kinds of music and sound effects, he would dance on the web cam. KOL Sleep overs and more.

In 2007 AOL Said there was no future in Live Streaming and than they shut down Radio KOL. They were wrong because today live streaming is around people every day. When Tim Armstrong become CEO of AOL he changed so much at AOL he changed AOL Kids Service from KOL To AOL KIDS. In 2013 Tim Armstrong Kick kids out of AOL shutdown AOL Kids Service.

 

 

Kids do not have any where to go on AOL, Lot of AOL Brands are on Grown ups ages 18+. Kids are left out on many great and fun things. Tim Armstrong needs to hear from everyone and he needs to bring back Radio KOL With Rick Adams, He needs bring back KOL
