Notice of impending closure of all GeoCities web sites

Hi everyone,

Just so you aren't caught out .... Yahoo is pulling the plug on GeoCities.

For those of more recent times, 15 years ago GeoCities became for web sites what YouTube is for video. And just the same ... in there somewhere is some truly good content. Which is about to disappear. Along wih the last of the "blink" tags. (geek joke there)

So ... how many of you know about a good cult resource site (or even a mediocre one) on a GeoCities site? Add it to this list and I'll do my darnedest to grab a copy before the big switch-off.

Thank you, John. How do we know whether a site is a geo-cities site?

I'm ignorant about such things.

Thanks again!

Here's a sample ....

[www.geocities.com]

[au.geocities.com]

[www.geocities.com]

Namely, that GeoCities.com is in the domain name, with the site itself existing in a sub-directory within their server.
