20 Years Ago on AOL.com: Nov. 26, 1998 -- Happy Thanksgiving

November 26, 1998: The lead spot for Thanksgiving was a shopping promo, along with Sports and more shopping. And while this was only a preview from our staging server, you can see twin AOL.com crossword house ads, a small taste of what we would later call "jackpotting."

[Series note: In the late 1990s, I programmed the content for the AOL.com home page, which relaunched with a new design on July 14, 1998. I printed screencaps and saved them. 20 years later, I'm scanning them in and posting them with a little commentary under the tag #20YearsAgoOnAOLcom.]
