I’d like to say they were never really alive, but they did build quite the membership before officially packing it in yesterday. I saw this in my inbox and decided I should really get off my ass and update my blog, so here I am sharing some news that really isn’t news.

Dear Kenny,

We would like to update you on the status of AGLOCO’s operations. We continue to believe in the AGLOCO concept, but our revenue is currently not sufficient to give Members a meaningful distribution. And though there are increases in membership, the resulting revenue is not enough to support operating costs. As a development team we are unable to continue to use our savings to fund the operations. If any Member would like to pursue continuing the operations of AGLOCO, you may contact us at agloco1@live.com.

We would like to thank every Member for supporting our effort to bring a piece of the Internet directly to the user. We hope that we can find a way to keep the operations going.

AGLOCO Development Team

If you were an Aglogo member, you recieved the same e-mail yesterday. All the money that they did make was paid to themselves (developers) and the end users got nothing in the end. This post is filed under “making money”, but I guess it should be filed under “how not to make money”. ;)
