Netscape.com to withdraw social news

About 14 months ago, Netscape.com launched Digg.com-like social news website, replacing its well known web portal for many years. My Way News reported AOL is once again revamping its Netscape.com web portal, back to the good old days style.

The (official) Netscape Blog has some explanation:

people really do associate the Netscape brand with providing mainstream news that is editorially controlled. In fact, we specifically heard that our users do have a desire for a social news experience, but simply didn't expect to find it on Netscape.com.

The upcoming Netscape.com can be viewed at http://netscape.aol.com/.

The "social news" Netscape.com won't get removed completely. The new location will be decided later.

Thanks to SillyDog701 moderators Edward and Fulvio for providing the news tips.
