I was going to title this ‘End of a error’, not because we are finishing or because ObWi was an error, I just like the pun. Other similar titles might raise some concerns. But I thought I should note that the old home of ObWi has gone to that Internet Valhalla to sup mead with GeoCities, Theranos, MySpace, Vine and a host of others and prepare themselves for Ragnarök(=Dead Internet if you ask me). If you go to the old address at https://obsidianwings.blogs.com/, you’ll get these Frequently Asked Questions
Why can’t I log in?
Our end of service date was September 30, 2025. This means you can no longer login.
Am I owed a refund?
Typepad customers who paid for a year of service that extended beyond the shutdown date have been issued pro-rated refunds. You may need to contact your bank for further details if you do not see the refund on your statement. If you did not have a valid credit card on file, we may not have been able to process your refund.
Am I able to access my files, and if I was unable to extract them in time, is there any extension available?
Unfortunately, you can no longer access your files and there will be no extensions beyond the end of service date.
What will happen to my blog data?
All of the blog data will be purged.
Some of you may want to root around in the archive at https://archive.obsidianwings.blog/ and pull up a post or comment you are particularly fond of.
