Hey guys, I've created a list of all abandonware sites on Listible (http://www.listible.com/), so please go and add any others and vote on the existing ones.

You can find it at http://www.listible.com/list/best-ab...are-game-sites

Enjoy...

In related news, the Wikipedia page with a list of abandonware sites was removed in a spam clearout recently.

As it should have. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a phone book.

Yup. Actually there are a number of things you can do on Listible:
  • Vote for the whole list
  • Vote either up or down for any number of list items (called resources)
  • Put comments for the whole list
  • Anyone can add new resources (items) to the list
Actually all the people voting should vote not just for Abandonia, but for all the sites they like. That way, the ones that are most popular will bubble to the top and the not so popular ones will go to the bottom.

It's quite a cool system. Part of this whole web 2.0 thing (which no-one seems to agree with the definition of).

It will, although I suppose we've got an unfair advantage at the moment because I only posted this notice here on the Abandonia forums. I don't belong to the HOTU forums so if anyone could post a notice there it would be highly appreciated (and any other abandonware community you might belong to). I did put it on Digg but that's not really targeting a certain community.

Oh, and also, the more people vote for the whole list, it might just end up on the front page of Listible which would bring even more people to see and vote.
