In my newsletter today, I bragged on Swype File.  It was great.  I was making a little extra money by way of Adsense and book sales, and gaining new commenters on my articles and new newsletter subscribers.

It was generating traffic which was the whole purpose of the concept.  I wanted others to sign up, too.

But I just went to log in to kill some time before my doctor’s appointment and found the following

Unfortunately, swypefile has been shut down for the time being. Things weren’t going as planned, and we are re-thinking the swypefile concept. Thanks to everyone who supported what we were trying to do!

I must admit that I’m a little bummed.  I understand that concepts go awry but I think we all knew that this was a new concept, a new site, and that changes would be forthcoming.  I’m also dissappointed that there was no email notification that was sent out.  Had I gotten it, I certainly wouldn’t not have recommended it to the masses.

So for now, if you’re an internet marketer and have great articles to share you’ll have to go back to the article directories, your blogs and newsletters.  At least for the time being.

(or you could submit some to me… I’m always looking for great content to share with my readers!)
