Warp2search shutting down

LukeK · Dec 26, 2002, 05:38 PM

Looks like warp2search might be shutting down soon, due to financial problems.

one of the owners degger has said he cant afford to continue paying for the site. sad economic climate atm, lots of sites are shutting and there is no money to be made with ads anymore.

Yeah it's a shame, it seems there's a lot of sites that have the right idea and hit if off big, but aren't able to keep it up because of the high demands, you'd think a bigger backed corporation would see the benefit in such sites and get behind them

Sorry Tosh, didn't mean to be a doom merchant! Just a small reminder that sites like this don't run on fresh air.
