Apparently they are closing on Feb 21st 2009 and going to be sending e-mails out shortly inviting groups to join elsewhere. Check out the alternative at hhtp://Multiply.com, is the info I have.

Re: MSN Closing

Every now and then similar stuff is rumoured, its going to close or it’s going to charge for messenger usage etc.

Not heard anything myself, until an official announcement is made just ignore it.

Its definitely a hoax. Why on earth would Microsoft get rid of something that must earn them a fortune in ad revenue and gets their name across. :P
