Neowin Closed!

intensityx · #1 8th Aug 02, 08:23 PM

A message in the site reads:

Neowin is closed for now.

We don't have the capacity to support the type of site we have always wanted to bring to our visitors. Despite our best efforts we are still refusing our visitors and long term members the web site due to errors similar to "Server too busy"

Since Neowin will never be just another phpnuke or copycat wannabe tech site we would rather call it a day than continue to limp on our resources. So for now we opt for closure.

Cheer up guys,

We are still here.

Let's all do our best to make this site so great BetaONE will produce "Server too busy" messages. No, we won't go limping eighter, we just get ourself a new and faster host!

Anyways, it IS a loss though . . .

Cheers!
