Tim Armstrong of AOL: 3 things

1. People. Board, consultants, employees are passionate about the turnaround. “people at AOL are playing to win.

2. Predicts a massive platform battle in Silicon Valley. Content is the new glue that holds the Internet together.

3. “it’s time for the Internet to get programmed”

4. Brands matter a lot so the content future won’t be Mom & Pop

5. Content Platforms can be good or bad. Does not see AOL as a “content farm”

6. AOL will develop content that looks different

7. Great strategy a la Tom Brady, “throw it to the open guy”

8. Would AOL buy Yahoo? Doesn’t sound like it
