Looking for previously run news stories?

Posted Apr 22nd 2008 12:00PM by Sanjay Nayar 32 Comments

One piece of feedback that we often receive is that its hard to find a story that you saw previously or had read earlier in the day or week and that is now not running on the site. So to address that, there is a new AOL News page called The Rewind where you will be able to see all the stories that had been previously running. You are also able to search for any Headline article that has run on our AOL.com. You can even directly subscribe to The Rewind Feed so you'll never miss a story again.

To make things easier on AOL.com, we also provide links at the bottom of each panel to some of the more popular earlier stories that you will now be able to still access on The Rewind.

Spotlight : Health Preview Panel

Posted Feb 6th 2008 11:56AM by Sanjay Nayar 21 Comments

Hopefully everyone has had a chance to check out the new Preview Panels including eBay that was previously spotlighted in our earlier blog entry.

This week, I wanted to provide a little more information about one of the other new Preview Panels - Health!

We all need to take care of ourselves, and keeping up with the latest Health news is of course vitally important. The new Preview Panel really helps to quickly and easily keep up with what's new in the world of Health directly from the AOL.com homepage.

When you select the Health supertab (click here for more info on how to change your Preview Panel options), if you put your mouse over the Health icon, the Preview Panel will expand and you will see the 5 top Health stories of the day including a quick overview of the lead Health story. Clicking on any of these headlines will take you to the complete article for more information.

Also included in the Health Preview Panel are some really useful links that I wanted to alert you to.

  • Better Body Blog – Links you to the AOL Body Blog where you can read and comment on diet and fitness

  • AOL Body – Links you to directly to the AOL Body, your destination for in-depth information about health issues as well as research and learn about specific diets, health information, fitness, and current health news.

  • Symptom Checker - Links you to the AOL automated symptom checker. This is a great tool with content provided by the faculty of Harvard Medical School that gives an easy, user friendly way to help you narrow down potential conditions based on the symptoms you are experiencing.

I hope you have a chance to try the new Health Preview Panel and as always, we are very interested in your feedback. So please let us know what you think!
