Ma.gnolia.com Loses Customer Data & Backup

Ma.gnolia Data Loss

It's been a bad January for web businesses. First, JournalSpace lost everything. Then SoapBlox was hacked, and now Ma.gnolia.com's future is looking very grim.

After three years in business, bookmarking site Ma.gnolia has lost its customer data and will presumably shut down. Check out the screenshot above if the site is no longer available. We don't know if the backups were not done properly (as in the case of JournalSpace), or if Ma.gnolia was just exceptionally unlucky. Either way, the data is gone.

Judging by Ma.gnolia's Get Satisfaction page (by the way - Get Satisfaction is a great service), users are pretty upset.
