eNom Launches RichContent Website Service
ICANN accredited registrar, Enom Inc. announced, in a presentation at HostingCon, that it has launched its new RichContent service, a subscription service designed to provide website operators with article, blog and video content to supplement their existing site content.
The service, available as a reseller service to resellers of eNom’s web hosting and domain registration services, as well as to hosting providers that don’t resell eNom’s other services, provides website operators with access to an enormous base of content that can be inserted into their own sites via a selection of widgets.
The objective of the service, says Sheridan, is to enable hosting providers to offer their customers a means of better engaging visitors to their sites, creating more successful projects among hosting customers.
“If we do our job right,” says Sheridan, “this is so easy and such a good end user experience that, basically, the compelling content will drive enough end user engagement that I want to start seeing a lift on hosting renewals.”

Yahoo GeoCities is closing on October 26, 2009
Yahoo GeoCities is closing on October 26, 2009. Today, I have received following email from them:
—————————-
Dear Yahoo! UK & Ireland GeoCities customer,
We’re writing to let you know that Yahoo! UK & Ireland GeoCities, our free web site building service and community, is closing on October 26, 2009.
We have enjoyed hosting web sites created by Yahoo! users all over the world, and we’re proud of the community you’ve built. However, we have decided to focus on helping our customers explore and build relationships online in other ways.
On October 26, 2009, your GeoCities site will no longer appear on the Web, and you will no longer be able to access your GeoCities account and files.
What You Need to Do
If you’re no longer using your web site, you don’t need to do a thing, but if you’d like to move your web site, or save the images and other files you’ve posted online, you need to act now by downloading your files to your own computer.
To quickly download your published files and images, visit your GeoCities web site, right-click on each page, and choose Save Page As… from the menu that appears. Choose a location on your computer to save your files, then click OK or Save to save the HTML and images associated with your page. Learn more about downloading your files.
With your pages and images saved offline, you can re-create your site with any hosting provider you like, such as BT Web Hosting.
Please be aware that after October 26, your GeoCities files will be deleted from our servers, and will not be recoverable. If you’d like to save your files, you must download them now.
Another Way to Connect Online
As a Yahoo! customer, you can now use your Yahoo! profile as a central point to manage your identity, activities, and interests across Yahoo! and make it easy to connect and share with the people who matter to you most.
You can get started anytime by adding your picture and other personal details, then invite friends and family to connect — even start your own blog. You’ll be able to follow the online activities of your connections across Yahoo!.
Setting up your profile is easy, and it’s free! Visit your profile now.
Don’t Wait
We encourage you to save your files now. If you need assistance, please visit the help centre.
We want to thank you for being a GeoCities customer, and hope you continue to enjoy our other Yahoo! UK & Ireland services.
Best regards,
The Yahoo! UK & Ireland GeoCities team

Fortunately, I do not have any important data on it but if you are using Yahoo GeoCities, you will need to download all your pages and images before they close this service.

Yahoo! 360° is closing on July 13, 2009
You might have received the following email in your inbox if you are using Yahoo! 360°:
————————————
Dear Yahoo! 360° customer,
On July 13, 2009, Yahoo! 360° will be closing and your new profile on Yahoo! will become the place where you connect with the people who matter to you most. With only fourteen days remaining, it’s important for you to save any information you’d like to keep, and begin transferring your blog to your new profile. Anything not saved from your Yahoo! 360° account before July 13, 2009, will no longer be accessible. Here are some details to guide you through the transition.
What you need to move to your new profile
Your 360° information will not be automatically transferred to your new profile on Yahoo!. To move your profile photo, nickname, and any personal status messages, you’ll need to first save or download them before July 13, 2009. Once you’ve saved this information, you can later upload it to your new profile. Be sure to head over to your new profile soon so you can make it look just the way you want.
What to do with your blog
Be sure to take your blog with you as part of this transition process. To help, we’ve built a blogging tool for you in your new profile on Yahoo!. We’ve made the move easy; it takes just one click to take your posts with you. If you’d prefer to take your blog to a different website instead, you can download an archive of your posts and transfer them to your new blog space. Click here to read more about your blogging options.
Some content will not be supported in your new profile
Please note that your new profile will not allow mature content. Also, you will not be able to take the following with you to your new profile: your 360° inbox, testimonials, friend categories, local reviews, RSS feeds, tags, or custom theme. If you want to retain any of this material, we strongly recommend that you return to your pages and download it before July 13, 2009.
Your privacy settings are retained
Your privacy is important to us. Both your new profile and your blog contents will be set to “private”. This means unless you change the setting, you will be the only one able to see your profile.
To help you through this transition, we’ve compiled a list of the most frequently asked questions and resources here.
Thank you for using Yahoo! 360°. We look forward to seeing you in your new profile on Yahoo!.
The Yahoo! Profile Team
————————————
Yes, Yahoo is going to close Yahoo 360 service from July 13, 2009 onwards. If you have any information on Yahoo 360 then make sure to save or download your existing 360 information before this date to keep from losing it.
