The Plazes.net website and API service are ceasing operation as of August 15, 2008

With the acquisition of Plazes by Nokia now complete the Plazes development team is concentrating its resources building something new within Nokia, and it's very likely that the structure of the Plazes API will change significantly.

As such, the Plazes.net website and the Plazes.net API will cease operation on August 15, 2008.

The Plazes.com site, and the Plazes.com API, will remain in operation for the time-being.
