Yahoo! (www.yahoo.com) is quietly closing down the long-standing free web hosting service GeoCities (geocities.yahoo.com), according to a report that appeared today on TechCrunch.

A notice appearing on the GeoCities homepage says accounts are no longer available, adding, “after careful consideration, we have decided to close GeoCities later this year,” and promising to share more details later this summer.
