The most important features, besides the slightly improved design and a blueish scheme that replaces the earthy tones on the old version of the site, are the social integration tools. First of all, under the "My Stuff" menu in the top right area of the page, AOL now offers a lot more than email, weather, pictures and the AOL toolbar. Now, you can slide it for more options, which include movies, horoscope, music and social news from Propeller.
Furthermore, a great emphasis is put on social networks. The "My Networks" area located on the right is essentially a built-in widget from which you can access your Facebook, MySpace, AIM, Bebo and Twitter accounts. Nifty, and a great way to keep the visitors on your page instead of having them run off directly to these sites.
