On October 26, 2009, Yahoo! shut down GeoCities for good. Granted, most sites built on GeoCities were festering eyesores and for the most part nobody will lose sleep over its demise, but Yahoo! really screwed the pooch on handling the closing when it comes to SEO.

Obviously I've not been paying attention to what was going on with GeoCities.  I didn't personally have a site there, but I know of folks that do, including a popular local artist. An email is winging its way over there.
