#20YearsAgoOnAOLcom: Oct. 11, 1999 -- Wedding Bells; Fall in Love

October 11, 1999: We started off the workweek with a wedding feature. Also, for the remainder of this feature, you're going to see a lot more of these preview-only blocks, instead of full-page previews. Not sure why:

For the PM update, we went with another generic Love@AOL photo personals promo, though I notice we hadn't used the actual Love@AOL branding in the most-recent promos.

In the corporate links section on the bottom, we see a link to the AOL 5.0 Launch Webcast archive, which I'm sure was gripping viewing:

[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.]
