** Archive Team officially proclaims '''[[Yahoo!]]''' the least trustable host and its arch-enemy. Prove us different, Yahooligans. Or... don't. Expect anything in [[wikipedia:List_of_mergers_and_acquisitions_by_Yahoo!]] and [[wikipedia:List_of_Yahoo!-owned_sites_and_services]] to shutdown (if it hasn't already).

* [[World2ch.org]] - ''"not dead yet!"''

* [[Wikidot]] has not had development work for years, there is no official presence on their [http://community.wikidot.com/forum:recent-posts support forum], just many complaints about the difficulty contacted staff, even from those with paid accounts. Backup and wiki conversion tools are poor, services like search and anti-spam bots have problems for some time, and the site has been [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5228862.0 up for sale] for 4 months.

It is unclear whether accounts will be able to retain content if they go through the verification procedure.

Since there is hardly any obvious rationale(?) for closeing down "Google Labs" it pictures google as being either less supportive or even hostile to new inoventions and less responsible with usergenerated content or more secretive about their ongoing projects than one might thought before or than Google might was before indeed. 1 Jan 2011  [[User:Whatsgoingonwithgoogle|Whatsgoingonwithgoogle]] 18:06, 17 October 2011 (UTC)

===2009===
 
* December 6: '''favrd''', a website that aggregated favorite tweets from twitter, abruptly shut down on December 6, 2009 with absolutely no warning, killing off thousands of highlighted entries added by group-consensus over significant months. As a reward for their efforts, founder Dean Allen wrote this helpful message: ''"Alas, stars on Twitter have become mere take-out menus hung on the doors of other restaurants. There are still lots of clever and funny things to read every day, but finding these is no longer a challenge â you already follow your sources. Sites like this one now serve mainly as fuel for emotional up-fuckedness in the guise of a game. Just an idea: next time you see something you like, write the person who made it a note telling them so. Even better, explain why. Take care!"'' Advice to people who want to work with Dean Allen's projects in the future: don't.
* November: '''here.is''' seems to permanently off-line. It ceased to re-direct email for some time ago and as per 11-23-09 it doesn't redirect even URLs any longer.

After community pressure, Google has decided to {{url|1=http://etherpad.com/ep/blog/posts/etherpad-back-online-until-open-sourced|2=open source the Etherpad codebase}}, keeping the service alive until then. The site closed down shortly after. Fortunately there are now are [http://www.google.com/search?q=etherpad+alternatives numerous] [http://www.google.com/search?q=etherpad+clone alternatives].
* March 30: '''[[Yahoo_Briefcase|Yahoo Briefcase]]''', a positively ancient site run by Yahoo that provided you with 25 free megabytes of storage space for your junk, sent a mail to what were likely years-old contact addresses to tell them they had a little more than a month to get their files out, March 30, 2009. After that, the files would be deleted. What, Yahoo doesn't have a spare memory stick to store what must be the amount of files in this service for the next year?
* March 25: '''Yahoo! Farechase''', an airline fare aggregation and searching site, was shut down on March 25, 2009. It had previously been its own company, founded in 1999, and purchased by Yahoo! in 2004. <ref>{{url|http://news.cnet.com/Yahoo-buys-travel-company/2100-1032_3-5300561.html}}</ref>
* March 20: '''{{url|http://www.spiralfrog.com|Spiralfrog}}''', "a FREE service that lets you download over 3 million songs and videos, legally and safely", pulled up stakes in the night and completely shut down on March 20, 2009. <ref>{{url|http://arstechnica.com/web/news/2009/03/ad-based-music-service-spiralfrog-croaks.ars}}</ref> Things looked so promising in 2006: <ref>{{url|http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2006/08/7611.ars}}</ref> Oh, and sadly, all your music you downloaded from them will stop working within 30 days or less. <ref>{{url|http://arstechnica.com/old/content/2007/09/spiralfrog-debuts-with-free-ad-supported-music-downloads.ars}}</ref>
* March 17: '''{{url|http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/|The Seattle Post-Intelligencer}}''' was {{url|1=http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/business/395463_newspapersale10.html|2=put up for sale}}, but found no buyer, and the print edition stopped on March 17th 2009 after 146 years. <ref>{{url|http://www.thenewstribune.com/news/columnists/zeeck/story/591181.html}}</ref> Initially, reports indicated it would shut down the website as well as the paper, but a plan was apparently in place to run a "skeleton crew" on an internet-only site, which continues to operate.
* March 11: '''{{url|1=http://www.videosift.com|2=Videosift}}''' had a combination database and backup failure, losing: "All votes, ever. All member usernames who registered later than around 12 months ago. All member rankings. Your member profile info (e.g., bio, favorite sift, etc.), if any. All activity that happened on the site yesterday, March 11." This is unlikely to kill the site, but an awful lot of data was lost.
* March 6: '''{{url|1=http://www.scoopt.com/|2=Scoopt}}''', a "citizen journalism" site run by Getty images to allow the uploading of images by citizen journalists and the chance to be licensed to news organizations, announced they would no longer take any new imagery after February 6, 2009, and will shut down completely on March 6, 2009. Some content uploaders "may" be contacted about being absorbed into the main Getty site.

The free music it offered does not seem to have been transferred, however (the band Ancient Teknologi had several tracks available on music.download.com, but only one available on Last.fm). As of 28 February, it claimed to have 111.052 MP3s.
* February 28: '''[[Lycos Europe]]''' shut down their '''Tripod''' hosting service on February 28, 2009.  <ref>{{url|http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/18/AR2009011800224.html}}</ref> <ref>{{url|http://www.paidcontent.co.uk/entry/419-lycos-europe-killing-tripod-customers-warned-to-back-up/}}</ref> Note that Lycos Europe are distinct from Lycos.com.

With a 150-year history, there's a lot of backstory, and how this chronicler of history will end up, so too will many others. There is an excellent documentary about the last days of the Rocky Mountain News {{url|http://www.vimeo.com/3390739|here}}.
* February 23: '''Windows Live''' shut down the '''MSN Groups''' on February 23. They extended their original date from February 21st to give Group owners the weekend to prepare. <ref>{{url|1=http://windowslivewire.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!2F7EB29B42641D59!34861.entry?sa=503427140}}</ref>
* January 31: '''{{url|http://ma.gnolia.com/|ma.gnolia.com}}''' had a catastrophic disk corruption/failure on January 31, 2009. From the message on the main site: ''"As I evaluate recovery options, I can't provide a certain timeline or prognosis as to to when or to what degree Ma.gnolia or your bookmarks will return; only that this process will take days, not hours."'' Ma.gnolia had an excellent export feature... hope you used it and did the backups they didn't!
* January 28: '''{{url|1=http://dominomag.com/|2=Domino Magazine}}''', a style/interior design magazine, announced that they were shutting down on January 28, 2009. {{url|1=http://mydecofile.dominomag.com/|2=My Deco File}}, one of the site's heavily used social bookmarking features (somewhat like delicious for images) will remain up for a few weeks to allow users to save their stuff.
* January 28: '''{{url|1=http://culture11.com/home|2=Culture11}}''' ran out of money.<ref>{{url|http://www.patrolmag.com/scanner/1263/culture11-is-over}}</ref>

* January 11: '''[[Co.mments]].com''' closed down on January 11, 2009.

The Deathwatch or Watchlist is a central indicator of websites and networks that are shutting down and serves as an indicator of what happened to particular sites that shut down quickly.

New sites should be added in chronological order, newest death date first. Forward-looking death dates should be added to the first list only. Sites large enough to warrant additional information will receive a dedicated page, linked from here and on Category:Closing projects.

A list of sites which warrant pre-emptive monitoring (either for their cultural significance or because they appear to be endangered) can be found at Fire Drill. Some general brainstorming is at Deathwatch/Misc.

Pining for the Fjords (Dying)

Websites (notable or with user-generated content) that are definitively shutting down. No speculation please! Sites that appear troubled should go on Fire Drill.

  • December 31: The Samsung Tizen App Store for phones has been shut down.[379]
