Rule #1: talk to your customers.
AOL is doing it more and more every day.
The Greenhouse blog is now launched: http://greenhouse.aol.com/

On that note, I’ve got to start a list of all the amazing open things that have happened in the past six months at AOL:
1. Acquisition of WIN.
2. AIM Pages supports everything: RSS, YouTube, Flickr, etc.
3. MapQuests opens API
4. AIM opens up API
5. Bloggingstocks.
