Youve Got (New) Mail! AOL Finally Rolls Out Its New-Look Web Mail To Its 24M Users

AOLMail_inbox_NEWDuring AOL's Q2 earnings conference call yesterday, CEO Tim Armstrong emphasized several times how the company was moving to a more technology-focused approach in its lines of business. His emphasis was on advertising, but the change in climate is happening in other places, too, it seems: today the company is rolling out an update to AOL Mail, the first overhaul the webmail service has had in five years. The new version will see a new user interface, better integration with other services like messaging -- and a new format for ads on the site.David Temkin, the SVP of mobile and mail at AOL, tells me the rollout has been a long time in coming, and that since December selected groups of users have actually already been getting the new interface. From today, however, it will go out to all 24 million people using AOL Mail -- with no option to switch back if you happened to prefer the older version.
