Cause of death: the autopsy
The deadline is real: Original Course View support ends after 2026-12-31. But Anthology, Blackboard's maker, ships bulk conversion, a conversion preview and official checklists and workbooks for free, and the buyers are university teaching centres that buy through procurement.
The numbers
None. It was never built, so there are no visitors, sales or ad spend to count. It died on paper, which is the cheapest place to die.
Could rise again if
