I remember when Geocities launched. Read its history on Wikipedia. It was so inspiring, and I was awed and amazed by their Javascript-supported content editor (I still have a copy of it on a CD somewhere). To my mind, what doomed Geocities over the years was bandwidth - the sites were never fast, and got slower and slower until a Geocities link was a signal to go get a cup of coffee (Angelfire, a Geocities clone eventually purchased by Lycos, has suffered a similar fate). Yahoo has done lots of things well over the years - but hosting member content hasn't been one of them (Flickr notwithstanding).
