Stickam is shutting down |

Stickam has announced that it’s closing down on January 31 at 11:59 PM, that is tonight. The site posted the news 21 hours ago on its official blog. A short notice, and they didn’t state a reason why they were shutting it down.

The site is currently 7 years old, so I’m speculating that maybe they weren’t as profitable as they used to be now that live video streaming is more widely used on several different sites now compared to back then in 2005.

While I didn’t use the site much other than watching a few shows and friends, Stickam will certainly be missed. I always find it sad when a good site I used shuts down. I guess the only tiny little bit of good news from this is that the site will let you download your recordings until February 28, 2013.
