So Long and Thanks for All the Fish!

It's the end of the line here at NeatoGeek. Alas, we just aren't cranking out a profit, so we're shutting down this blog. I'm still posting at Neatorama, so you'll see over there a lot of the geekery content that you've enjoyed here.

My thanks to Alex for the chance to try out something different, to my patient wife for giving me the extra time, and all of our readers and commenters who made NeatoGeek a part of their day. It's been a blast.

Smart move.

As the numbers have shown, just not enough "oomph" to drive a separate "but equal" geeky blog apart from the Neato blog.

Diluting your reader base is never good, and there wasn't enough differentiation from the Neato side to bring in new viewers. Especially since the Neato side would post the exact same articles at pretty much the same time.

Hopefully the Bambino experiment will wrap up shortly and we can go back to all things "neat" and not try to compartmentalize things.

Good effort and all, but even better to know when it's time to call it quits.

Dammit, man! You know, I finally caved (again, as always) and reactivated jockeystreet.

Maybe you'll go back to libertarian propaganda at Zeray Gazette so I can get wound up and argue with you...?
