Not much to say except that. We've all likely got at least a few memories of Geocities (and angelfire) even if they were made after it had already pretty much become a thing of the past.
Even though I hate geocities sites, it's still sad to see an old internet pillar close its doors. Rambunctious Indigestion Plaque!
Last update was in 1997, it was the daily click in the making folks. (well maybe in a horrible but fluffy way) I even spotted the phraise Game Of The Week on there

are you sure its gone? when i go to rikus' page it has a sidebar with 'YAHOOgeocities'. sure they didnt just get bought?
Yahoo bought them back in '99, I'm pretty sure. I believe I read somewhere that only a few sites would be archived by Yahoo, but that may have been incorrect.
Shame it's going. But wow Rikus, that site is ancient! I love stumbling across old sites like that (last updated; in the last millennium!). I used some website downloader app in 1998 to pull down some massive Zelda website on Geocities. Which even pulled down external links of friends and similar sites all full of Zelda-y goodness.
