Hoodride RIP or does it live on?

I know all about the (rumoured!) problems DBD has faced leading upto the lack of updates on Hoodride.com, it was good however to see the syndicate pages still there, I hoped in a way that that was his way of handing Hoodride (and the money making monster it had become!) back to the people.

Hoodride under different names has always been there but whatever DBD has done at least he brought people with the same outlook on so much more than VW's together (music & art etc). I had hoped that the forum would stay open but as of this evening it is no more (unless my putter is doing strange things!)

Whats next? Do you think that people will drift away and leave those that have always liked it low and rusty to do there own thing, or should we unite behind another banner?

Never really had any strong feelings about the Hoodride thing and never went as far as doin the stencil, but it was a good place to hang out thats for sure...

Hoodride is just a http://www.wordpress.com  blog with a URL aint it. No need to be part of that ... check http://www.dskmag.com  - an no we still aint making money ... we all still owe Timmy $10 bucks for it.
Happy to post other rides in that within reason (you filthy Poraga people got no chance) ... lol ...

Hoodride seems to be there still ... Video and MySpace stuff have kinda taken over from the blog when it comes to social folksonomy media such as Hoodride.
