On April 30th, 2012, you will no longer have access to your free FortuneCity website. To continue with your site, we recommend ordering a Dotster hosting plan. If you order by April 30th, use coupon code FORTUNE80 at checkout to take 80% off a new hosting plan.

If there is something you like lingering on a abandoned free Fortune city web page you had better visit it and save what you want before April 30.
It would probably also be a good idea to check up on the free sites that have not been abandoned and find out what the site owner's plans are.

first geocities and now this... so much Internet history disappearing right before our eyes.
E: "Did they... did they just endorse the combination of the JSDF and US Army by showing them as two lesbian lolicons moving in together and holding hands and talking about how 'intimate' they were?"
B: "Have you forgotten so soon? They're phasing out Don't Ask, Don't Tell."

but is it history we can live without? I know there were a lot of horrid geocities pages.
And I never heard of Fortune City before this.
So unless someone can point me to wonderful content that will be lost, my reaction's going to be *shrug*

some sites at Fortune city - hmelton - 04-18-2012
In spite of Sweno's comment there were quite a few good fanfic sites on Geocities and I still find myself accidentally clicking a dead link to a Geocities site at least once every couple of weeks. There are websites that have tried to archive geocities, but they missed so much and often only have partial copies. So it would probably pay to search your links and see if there are any fortune city sites with material you want to keep.
I've been rather busy farming, but I have started going through my large collection of fanfic links searching out the links that point at a fortune city site and seeing if there is something I want to archive or if the site is moving somewhere else.
If you have a link to a fortune city site please post it.
Below are the links I've come across in my search so far.
All I can say about the quality of the material pointed to below is that something on the web page or website caught my attention and caused me to put it in my link pages.
