Wazillion The January 1999 Email: Text In late January 1999, StarSeed sent an email to ringmasters. The email was "signed" by the Webring Gang. This page presents the complete text of the Webring email below.
Date: Thu, 28 Jan 1999 07:37:28 -0800 Dear RingMaster, Boy, do we have some exciting news for you! This morning, we officially announced that Yahoo! has acquired GeoCities. Since Webring's recent merger with GeoCities, we are now able to be a part of this unique partnership with GeoCities and Yahoo! combining two unique things: the powerful community you've created, and the powerful services and features of Yahoo!
What does this mean to you as a Webring RingMaster? Well, first of all, Webring will be better than ever. Much better than ever! You'll have more traffic to your Webring. You'll have lots more cool tools to use. You'll have a larger variety of great features and services at your disposal. And most importantly, you'll have instantaneous access to more people on the Web - people who share your interests and want to participate in the community you've helped us create here at Webring. The terms of the deal won't be finalized for about four more months, but we can tell you that we are thrilled about the partnership. It's a perfect match. We're two of the most innovative, influential and popular companies on the Web today. Our cultures, our values, our beliefs are in sync. We share a common vision. For Webring, the best news is that Yahoo! recognizes in us something that only we can provide - a strong and committed sense of community. And for that, we have you to thank. We've built this together. And together we're shaping the future of the Internet. Please feel free to forward this email to your Ring Members or direct them to: http://www.webring.org/merger.html Thanks again for being a part of the Webring community. We look forward to an exciting future with you and Yahoo! Sincerely, The Webring Gang / Starseed division of GeoCities
The Wazillion Navbars Project Webring Sections and Subsections The Webring Section is a large section of my website. I have divided it into four major "subsections".
Each "subsection" has it's own special "logo". As you travel in the various subsections you will find, near the bottom of each page, links to pages within that subsection and also links to the other subsections. To go to any subsection, just click on the "logo" or on the text link for that subsection.
Webrings: General Information This subsection includes general information about webrings. Webrings can be hosted by a variety of different services. This section deals with the overall concepts and issues, not with any one particular "brand" of webring. It includes my Webring FAQ, links to articles about webrings, and general help information. Click here or on the graphic.
The WebRing.com System This subsection includes specific information about the WebRing.com system. While not the only webring system on the net, it is the best known and the most used. I own many webrings in this system and belong to many webrings in this system. (I also own and belong to many webrings in other systems as well.) Click here or on the graphic.
Webrings I Own and Belong To This subsection shows all the webrings I own and links to all the webrings to which I belong. This includes webrings in Ringlink, RingSurf, Bravenet and the WebRing.com system as well. If you are looking to join one of my webrings, this is a good place to start. If you wonder about the webrings I belong to, this is the place to go. Click here or on the graphic. |
