R.I.P Geocities – We’ll always remember the animated gifs
Saturday, April 25th, 2009 | Business, News, Yahoo | No Comments
It has just been reported that Yahoo has finally shut down age-old free web hosting service Geocities for good this time. Acquired by Yahoo! in 1999 for a whopping $2.87 billion, it was a service that many used to get their first website. Ohh how I will always remember those animated flame border .gifs and the flashing text featured all over the page…and who could forget the scrolling news going across the top of the screen…it was the coolest.
You were a legend, you will be missed.
