Sorry, GeoCities has closed.

GeoCities, were the first companies offering both paid and free hosting services to companies and individuals during early 1995. When Yahoo took over Geocities in 1999-2000, we expected much more from yahoo, but it seems that yahoo didnt fertilize the growth of geocities and as on 26th Oct 2009, they just shut it down!!!
i remember that the first crappy websites, we built ,where on geocities, and basically every IT guy i knew had a geocity page, filled with those Annoying GIF Images and icons.
Its the end of an ERA… an ERA of web hosting and its technologies.
There is a big write up on this here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoCities



How do you get through to those old accounts though? I had pics on my site, and its gone, lost forever… One random day when I remembered about ti, it was just no longer there!!!!!! Sniff!!!!!
too bad, I got an email from them asking me to backup my pages and files but I didnt bother coz I made that site ages ago
