Introducing New Preview Panels!
Posted Jan 7th 2008 4:33PM by Lisa Edwards
Today we introduced 6 new Preview Panels that are now available to everyone and we are really excited about them. Added to the list are new Preview Panels for eBay, Finance, Health, Movies, Music, and TMZ.
To refresh everyone's memory, Preview Panels are the 4 large buttons at the top right of the page that expand when you mouse over them. What's great about Preview Panels is that they present a lot of information without taking up a lot of space and cluttering your homepage. Just rollover the Preview Panel to see the content you want without having to click off to another page. Plus, customization options allow you to choose the Preview Panels you want to appear on your homepage.
To select one of these new panels, simply click on the small triangle in the upper right of any of the Preview Panels (except Mail which is permanent – everyone wants to see their e-mail right?). Once you choose a new Preview Panel, your web browser will remember your choices and load these up for you every time you open the page.
We hope that you have a chance to try them all and see which ones you like best. Over the next few weeks, we will highlight each of the new Preview Panels on the blog to give you a better understanding of the new features and functionality.
So we really want to hear your feedback on the all of the new Preview Panels. Do you like them? Are they easy to use? Are there things you wish they could do to make it even better? Are there other Preview Panels that you don't see that you would find useful?
We look forward to hearing from you!!!

141. I don't like the new format. Previously, I complimented AOL's homepage. Today, it is a disaster. There are overlays on my screen. If this is the best you can do;expect a cancellation from me. If it isn't broke,don't fix it.

145. I liked aol for years. I got high speed and switched to Firefox and aol was completely different. I finally got used to it, now you changed it again. When I go on the internet I have no arrow to go back, I have tried everything. I also have safari and that has the arrows, but I like using firefox better. Tell me what happened to the back arrows.

158. How do I get rid of these annoying pop-ups at the bottom of my email? ALSO: How do I stop the home page from automaticaly loading when I sign on? My "switch screen name" window appears it is in spanish (I think) and when I click "settings on the aol tool bar i get a message "we're sorry, the information you requested is temporairily unavailable, please try again later" . Well...I've been trying for 2 weeks, how much "later" do you reccomend? Please advise

159. Why couldn't you just leave things the way they were.
Everything was was working just fine.
It was all right in front of you. everything was clear.
Now it's too confusing.
Can't get my email
Don't mess with a good thing. Leave it alone.
Don't change just for the sake of changing.
