Dear nettimers, especially Dutch ones
Hyves.nl is closing on Friday
There are still some hours left to grab your stuff!

I was not an active Hyves user. So after getting a note that the service
was to be closed on the 29th of November 2013 and there was one week to
download the files, I personally didn't have a lot to worry about. But I
looked around and carried out what I could.

With this money we can build a social network that will never be sold to
Yahoo, will not become a gaming portal and will allow animated GIFs in
the backgrounds of user profiles!
Why Hyves matters? This is what I wrote 2 years ago about it as one of
the last "Pimp my Profile" networks
