GeoCities to be closed today

Time is up for Yahoo Inc.'s scheduled closing of perhaps the most significant virtual museum in recent history. Years ago a central meeting place for a massive chunk of American Web surfers, GeoCities will lock its doors and take millions of pages offline.

It's actually kind of sad to see. Most people don't know it, but Tech Support Guy was started on Geocities. See http://www.techguy.org/history.html

I'm almost sure that our address was originally http://www.geocities.com/siliconvalley/1339/

Ah, the good ol' days.

As a Dell forum refugee, I really appreciate your site Mike, keep up the hard work, and don't screw it up like Dell did.
