Yup, his post on the website said it was closing and to refer to his facebook page for sporadic freeware news for the future. But he also had a line that said if the reader was interested in purchasing FreewareBB to please contact him. Perhaps there was interest, which would explain the site going back up so quickly - it is tough to keep an established user base when a site disappears, even for just a short while. I think we've all experienced that at one point or another.
