BlogShares - Closed Down
by Rattle at 12:23 pm EST, Dec 3, 2003 |
] I am sorry to announce that BlogShares will not be
] reopening after the current technical difficulties are
] resolved. Currently, the database server is dead and
] looks to be for the next few days.
]
] The latest system crash has highlighted to me that
] deliverying a fun, useful service for the BlogShares
] community requires an active operator and developer. As
] most of you are no doubt aware I've been neither for the
] past couple of months. That has led to a decline of
] quality service, new features and ultimately income for
] the site and it looked likely that there wouldn't be
] enough to pay for next month's hosting. BlogShares's database imploded, and its creator has chosen not to pick up the pieces. |

] What was it? From their old page:
BlogShares is a fantasy stock market where weblogs are the companies. Players invest fictional dollars on shares in blogs. Blogs are valued by their incoming links and add value to other blogs by linking to them. Prices can go up or down based on trading and the underlying value of the blog. |
