No More GeoCities

It is with sadness that I see Yahoo is closing GeoCities, which was a very cool site in its day.
In its ongoing effort to jettison unpopular products, Yahoo said today that it will shutter GeoCities, a free personal home page service that it acquired in 1999 for $4.6 billion.
I had an early website at GeoCities. I was in the Soho/Lofts district. If you remember that, they had neighborhoods, including a little map, as I recall.

Sorry to see it go. It was fun at one time!
