AOL Reorganizes Products Division Following Conroy’s Departure
AOL (NYSE: TWX) is reshuffling parts of its products division following the departure of Kevin Conroy as AOL’s EVP of products. AOL Video, AOL Radio, Winamp, SHOUTcast, widgets and a few other areas are being moved from the Products & Platforms Group to the AOL Programming Group under EVP Bill Wilson. Programming will also take over AOL’s commerce and marketplace channels.
Also, the chat applications under Userplane, which AOL bought in 2006, will move into the People Networks business unit under Joanna Shields. In a memo to staffers about the latest changes, Randy Falco, AOL’s chairman and CEO, says that there are few other details at the People Networks that will be completed in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, Conroy’s remaining duties within the Products and Technologies division, which include overseeing mail, video search tool Truveo, mobile and toolbar, will go to Ted Cahall, the group’s president.
