Why suspend the site?
So why close/suspend magdahigh.com?
As of last count, the site had almost 300 registered members. In the age before facebook, usage was high. But as social networking became popular, site usage died down. In addition, the framework on which the site was build on made a huge and sudden change in architecture. Because of this, it became difficult to smoothly move the site to the new architecture. The safest and best approach was to just start afresh which would make importing the user generated data very difficult. The decision of closing/suspending the site could have been made several months ago but I just decided to leave it until some software licenses expire at the beginning of November.
So what's next?
