So back in the day there used to be a site called NoMoreAOLCDs.com. This site's goal was to collect one million AOL CDs and truck them back to AOL Headquarters. About 5 years ago, a friend and I were enthusiastic about the concept, and went to work collecting AOL CDs. We basically spent a weekend looting Office Depots, Post Offices, Kinkos, Home Depots, and other locations which carried the vile discs, and amassed quite a collection.
Flash forward to a year and a half ago. AOL announced in 2007 that it was no longer sending out the massive numbers of spammy CDs -- so NOMoreAOLCDs shut down, their cause realized. We did send them 2,800 CDs back in the day - 15th place out of all their contributors - of the whopping 410,000 they recieved. However, that wasn't nearly all that we'd collected; we were always planning on sending the rest, but it kept getting put off and put off.
Present Day. I estimate that I have approximately 5,500 AOL CDs in my room right now, boxed up. Since their original cause is now completely gone, I am let to wonder what exactly I should do with them. I'm open to suggestions - including ideas that would only use some of them. I bet there are some pretty fun pranks that could be executed with some of these =) What would YOU do with 5,000+ AOL CDs?
