      New travel idea: a ball pit full of bouncy balls that you jump into, the combined springiness would launch you at least a couple miles up

        Fun! Definitely some challenging entries here (27A XERXES I, 23A GENOA instead of VENICE).
        One nit on 8A: the chat is definitely AIM while the ISP and portal were AOL.

          Ooh, I'll change it to be the company that made one of the first chat services, AIM. Thanks for letting me know!
          27A and 23A, yea, I was really losing steam by this time and I wasn't really happy with the fill, but thank you for solving nonetheless!
