Notice anything new?

Hello there. If you stumbled on to this page from another source i'm sorry to tell you where not quite back yet.
After a string of hosts that died short after the sites relocation thybag has been down more than up for almost a year now. This though, is all about to change. I've invested in a nice new webhost and have been working steadily on thybag 6, which will be the most advanced and feature filled version of thybag to date.
As a little bit of clicking around will probably tell you, the sites still a little way off from competition, but once it is, i hope to be able to bring thybag back in full force and raise it to its former glory.
Thanks for stopping by.

More time to spend, hopefuly soon

I haven't really had a whole lot of time to spend updating and running the site of late, but with luck this should start coming to an end, with the completion of the corusework thats been eating away at most of this time.
So will luck thybag should be revived soon enough.

Merry Christmas Yall

Just wishing everyone a merry Christmas, i would start insulting the people who read this, seeing as it is Christmas, although that would kinda be a contradiction seeing as im here writing it.
Hope everyone enjoys themselves And possibly one of the laziest conversions to a Christmas theme ever on a site

Thybag is Back

Unluckily due to our old hosts terrible service and horrific management our database was lost and the only backup obtainable was over 4 months old. Are users now are again below four figures, and any members who no longer have accounts are encouraged to rejoin thybag.
Id like to thank our new host SwainHosting who has already proven them selfs to be massively superior in quality to our previous host.
Hopefully the lost content and functionally will slowly be replaced, getting the forum back to its previous state, and from there hopefully an even better one.

Thanks.

Google Buys Youtube

Google, the Internet's leading search engine, announced Monday that it is buying popular online video site YouTube for $1.65 billion in stock.

YouTube, which was founded in February 2005, has quickly become the most well-known of several online video sites. More than 100 million videos, many of which are short videos created by the site's users, are downloaded a day on the site.

According to Internet research firm Hitwise, YouTube has about a 46 percent share of the online video market.

For Google (Charts), the purchase of YouTube gives the company the ability to tap into the potentially lucrative online video and social networking markets. Some analysts have criticized Google for relying too much on advertising tied to keyword searches.

The combination of Google and YouTube could further strengthen Google's dominance in online advertising, giving it an edge over rivals such as Yahoo!, Microsoft's MSN and News Corp., which owns the social networking site MySpace. Some analysts said Monday that Yahoo, Microsoft and News Corp. also had probably expressed interest in buying YouTube.

In a statement, Google said that YouTube will operate as an independent unit of Google once the deal closes and will retain the YouTube brand name. The companies added that no YouTube workers will lose their jobs as a result of the acquisition and that Google will maintain its own online video business.
