EMAILING FOR THE GREATER GOOD Join me From: "Jane Subject: [TNDAVIDS] Genealogy Alert, Geocities is closing down all sites To: "TNDAVIDSON" TNDAVIDS@rootsweb.com This was sent to me by another list and I felt it was important to get the information out to those who might not know.Jane NC Genealogy Alert: Geocities to close this year > You may have heard that Geocities will be closing down later this year (2009). There are many genealogy sites on Geocities, and sadly, many of these sites may be lost if the webmasters don't move the sites to a new location. Yahoo is not notifying anyone about this by e-mail and many webmasters have not updated their sites in years, so--more likely than not--are not even aware the pages they have posted will be lost. You or someone you know may have genealogy information posted on a Geocities site. USGenWeb & Rootsweb also have had links to Geocities sites. Please help spread the word so genealogy websites won't be lost-- http://ancestorsearch.blogspot.com/2009/04/my-genealogy-site-is-on-geocities -now_29.html ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Please let others know thanks kindly!
