    AOL's personal web pages are going, going and almost gone!
    I mentioned in another post that AOL was killing its message boards by the end of the year. News is coming out that AOL is killing its personal web pages for members as of October 31, 2008. This isn't just sad because another long time fandom home bites the dust but because we're going to lose resources and fan fiction that we won't have access to again. For me, this includes stories I love like the works of Tenderware, a Janeway/7 writer who was active in the early 2000s.

    Ouch. Also. Ouch. If you know of fan fiction that is disappearing as a result of AOL's decision, please please please submit the new location and list the story on FanworksFinder. That way, people can find stories they love again. If you are some one who has their work located on AOL's member space and you need a new home for your work, let me know! I'll help you find a new home for your site on any of the free sites, can offer hosting with Fan History, suggest some low cost web hosts, etc.
