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.
