Welcome to Geekazine!

Oink, Wikileaks, Stage 6, MisicBrigade and Yahoo Music. What do all of these items have in common, well, they all are or will be shutdown. The internet grows daily – new websites start, and new websites fall.  Sometimes you can pick up the pieces and turn it into a profit, sometimes it’s just a name in the dust.

On Monday, DivX Stage 6 – a popular video website and used to pirate a lot of videos, has decided to close it’s doors on Feb 28th. The site let users upload their favorite videos to share. Some of them were legal, home-made videos. Others were pirated movies and television series. You could watch them right there, or you could download them and watch them later – considering if you had installed the DivX codecs.

*UPDATE: There is rumor that Bloglines could shut down as well. Although not a valid source, it would be a big blow to Social Networking. http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/02/24/bloglines-suffers-major-outage-heading-for-the-deadpool/
