But there were days where only very few offer such services to create sites. Yahoo GeoCities is one among them.
Now Yahoo GeoCities no longer accept new accounts. Yes, it is closing down. The message from GeoCities is given below.
Goodbye GeoCities
But not sure, what will happen to the existing accounts. It just says that “GeoCities will close later this year”. The following is the one given in Yahoo GeoCities help centre.
“Existing GeoCities accounts have not changed. You can continue to enjoy your web site and GeoCities services until later this year. You don’t need to change a thing right now — we just wanted you to let you know about the closure as soon as possible. We’ll provide more details about closing GeoCities and how to save your site data this summer, and we will update the help center with more details at that time”

Check open usernames
namechk.com is a new online service that allows you to find the available usernames from 84 different websites.
After www.usernamecheck.com withdrew the similar service, this one would be a nice alternate.
The speed of namechk.com is pretty fast when compare to other alternative services that checks open usernames.
This would definitely be helpful to find the open usernames.

GMail 5th Anniversary
1 April 2004, the day, GMail was launched to public with 1GB mail box quota. Today, GMail celebrates it’s 5Th anniversary.
GMail BETA was released on 01 Apr 2004 and currently being used by a huge number of people. GMail BETA will be celebrating it’s 5th anniversary on coming 01 April 2009.
The initial launch was with subscriptions that are based on invitations. Few years latter it was open to public which significantly increased the number of GMail users.
However still it will be with the BETA label. Isn’t strange to have BETA for a product which is doing good(?) over five years?
Although GMail BETA often announces new features it will still have the label BETA with it.
What is the big deal in the BETA?
Well, having a bug in stable release is much different than having a bug in BETA release. Isn’t?
If this continues for few more years, no wonder if, GMail would be called as GMail BETA.
