Uber.com Says Goodbye

This just in, Uber.com announced that it will be shutting down on Monday.

For those of you who are not familiar with Uber, it is a service which enables users to create free websites, blogs, slideshows, and more for free! And over the last two years, they created a thriving community of users. But now, they are done!

Why are they closing their doors?

Apparently, they are the latest victim in the economic crisis. According to the note on their website, Uber’s investors have stopped supporting them.

What should current users do?

If you are a current user of uber, you have until Monday to retrieve all of your content. And we suggest that you do this sooner than later. As the deadline approaches, the site will inevitably get more traffic, possibly causing it to become sluggish.

How can you stop this from happening to you?

The only way to avoid this from happening is by hosting your own website. It will cost you a few extra dollars a month, but it is definitely worth it. For more reasons to host your own blog or website, read our article 6 Reasons To Host Your Own Blog.
