AOL in Microsoft land
AOL says Microsoft's proximity didn't play a role in the choice of Seattle as the last of three cities for an AOL for Broadband marketing blitz. (See this morning's Insider column for more details.) But the timing is nonetheless interesting: Microsoft is widely reported to be planning to launch its MSN Music service this week.
And then there's this photo, below, which AOL made available last week as part of an online gallery showing the Running Man in various Seattle settings. The picture, taken at Gas Works Park, looks suspiciously similar to the default Windows XP background. Is there some subliminal symbolism going on here?
