Back in 2005 before Flikr went mobile and live-blogging went mainstream there was a vision of the future called Splashblog. We used our brand-new Treo600s to create snapshot by snapshot online scrapbooks; mine started the day my wife went back to work after our daughter was born, leaving the work-at-home dad with time for afternoon walks around downtown Manhattan.
Today, the Splashblog website has the following posted:
Dear Splashblog user,
We regret to inform you that the Splashblog service will be terminated on Friday, August 10th, 2007. The Splashblog website, any uploaded pictures or content, and customer support will no longer be accessible after this time.
However, we value all of our users and don't want you to lose any of the content you have created since you began using the Splashblog service. Therefore, we have designed an easy way for you to save all of your published content.
