Wow, it looks like blogshares will be com­ing back after all.

A solid agree­ment has been reached between BlogShares founder Seyed Razavi and tech­no­lo­gist Jay Camp­bell — the site is com­ing back!
Premium mem­ber­ships will be exten­ded one month to make up for this down­time. If you had 8 months left, now you have 9.
The recon­sti­t­uted BlogShares team is doing cartwheels over the pos­sib­il­it­ies that 2004 brings.
Check back for more notices, and soon a work­ing site.
