] 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.
