Real life has been pretty hectic so we're not sure if anyone has mentioned this. And we hope this is the appropriate place to post this. My co-author and I were doing some surfing last night and ran across a site that's sole purpose is to rebuild Geocities. You can image our pleasant surprise when we ran across our own Geocities sites as they existed when Geocities went down. The site is called Reocities: http://www.reocities.com/
Basically they've taken the URLs and changed the "g" in geocities to an "r" making it reocities. For example on geocities:
Whoa Nellie's Picard/Vash Romance Fan Fiction website was at:
http://www.geocities.com/TimesSquare/Galaxy/7926/
You will now find the last version of the
Whoa Nellie's Picard/Vash Romance Fan Fiction website at:
http://www.reocities.com/TimesSquare/Galaxy/7926/
Very cool! It was late so we didn't check every story on both sites but every link we did check worked. Anyone who lost stuff when Geocities went down or had a site on Geocities they liked to visit might want to look for it on Reocities. We're not sure how much they managed to save before geocities disappeared but it's worth a shot if you're hunting something down and have the old url.
Warmest Wishes,
Whoa Nellie

Thanks for that, WhoaNellie. I didn't have a site there but it's good news to those who had and didn't have adequate backup procedures.

You're welcome. If it helps just one person find something they thought was lost than it was more than worthwhile.
