AOL Redefines “Late” With WOW.com

So, AOL finally decides to put the wow.com domain name - which they’ve owned since 1998 - to good use. They’ll create a World of Warcraft social network out of it. Such a good idea, right?

The only thing I can think about this new social network - which isn’t really online yet - is this:

How the hell didn’t they come up with this sooner?

With Blizzard sending all those milestones every couple of months since WoW went online - 1 million users - 5 million users - 10 million users - you’d think that someone who owns wow.com would do something with the domain. But only now, after two years of WoW craze, someone at AOL came to this brilliant idea.

Note to AOL execs: put someone who has a clue in charge of your domain properties. Perhaps next time you won’t be 2 years late.

    The beauty of these blogging engines and CMS platforms is the lack of limitations and ease of manipulation that allows developers to implement rich content and ’skin’ the site in such a way that with very little effort one would never notice what it is making the site tick all without limiting content and effectiveness.
