geocities registration: "database unavailable"

[apt]

Help!

I can't update my geocities site anymore. If you have a page there can you test if it's just my problem or a universal breakdown at their end - it'll only take a minute of your time...

why do you have a site on geocities, the address they give ya is about a mile long and nobody can remember it. Sorry if this is out of topic but its true, i would recommend http://www.20m.com

The way Geocities gives addresses now has improved markedly since it was bought by Yahoo. If you have a yahoo id, then the address is just http://www.geocities.com/your_user_name_here. Other than that though, it's not particularly exciting for us, but good for practice etc before investing in domain names, hosting packages etc... I started with a Geocities site (back in the bad old days of 150 character urls) :)
