Yahoo will soon be shutting down their free web hosting service GeoCities on October 26. Having acquired GeoCities back in 1999 for billions of dollars, Yahoo says they are saddened to have to close it. They are currently offering users to upgrade to their paid service at a first years discount. With the closing of GeoCities the web will no longer be plagued with the famous cheesy looking web pages blanketed with ads, However critics say that we will lose a lot of good information.
Good Bye GeoCities!
