This is America Online's logo. It is mainly blue. This is another element to consider when look at the evolution of the site.AOL.com 1996
This website design was from the holiday season of 1996, which implies holidays such as Christmas. The red in the site represents one of the main colors of Christmas. It also represents poinsettias, the flowers that are usually present during Christmas. There is blue in the links on the left hand side of the site, which match the colors in the logo shown above. This is also very simple compared to later versions of the site.

The current design of the site has a modified logo, but it maintains a bluish color, just like its old logo. It, like MSN.com and Yahoo!, forewent simplicity in favor of the "wealth of information; poverty of attention" theory referred to in the MSN.com blog entry. It also features a search engine at the top of the page, like Yahoo.
