preev.com - does anyone know what happened to the site?

[jackg]

I've noticed that site has been down for a while and I assumed a lot of people used it historically so I'm curious if anyone knows why it's down and if it's staying down if we know who the creator/owner was/is and maybe the reason for it going down as I doubt Google's estimator was a good alternative (they've still got 3 years on their domain too).

It looked like a good site for eventually getting ad revenue as it was quite well known but I don't think I ever saw an ad on there to date though.

There's already an ongoing discussion about this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5405567.0

The site owner is known but apparently, he hasn't been active for many years now.

An alternative (made by @examplens): https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5405567.msg60760226#msg60760226

Looks like either Examplens inspired a few more members or they just decided to get things done since Preev has been a mess lately 

@ZipReg also created a similar service ---> [ANN] PREECS Real time BTC/USD conversion app like PREEV + More Features
