Unfortunately we have come to the end of the journey, nsyght.com is no more. While it may not surprise some given that we have been down for the last 3 some odd weeks, honestly we have worked incredibly hard to bring the site and the service back the way it was deserved. Judging from the amount of folks who reached out to me, many of you were looking forward to it.
Ultimately, the site was working in an offline capacity, and still working as good as it was the day we went offline. The problem? It just wasn't good enough. It wasn't stable, but more disturbingly it frequently had "gaps" so sometimes users would miss posts from their friends - which is really the whole point of the service. As much as I wanted to restore the service, there's no room for "sorta" good. You either have a really cool service that truly innovates/changes the game, or you go home.
To our fans, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support. Please be assured that your personal data will be removed immediately. To Slava Ivanov, you are truly one awesome developer and the lone bright spot over the last few weeks. To my advisors and investors, thanks for your faith and vision, and your belief in nsyght and me. And on a somewhat sappy note, thank you to my wife and son - you both have been my rock over the last few years and without you, the company would never have made it this far.
So, the next time you're at your pub/bar/event of choice, do raise a glass in our honor. We had one helluva ride, thanks for being a part of it.
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
