Vive la France: AOL France does its layoffs in style

For your weekend viewing pleasure: AOL France did an amazing video of the End of AOL France.

Must watch.

The password is �aollover�.

(Via Silicon Valley Insider.)

And it�s all done in one shot.

On seeing the video, ex-AOLer Peter Shankman (who got laid off from AOL in 1996), said �say what you want, but working at America Online was still, to this day, the best thing that ever happened to me in my life. The second best thing was being laid off.� (And he loves the French video � �when we got laid off in 1996, all we did was drive home and drink beer.�)
