Fedora 9 EOL notice: 
http://www.mail-archive.com/fedora-announce-list@redhat.com/msg01574.html

The Fedora Lifecycle: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LifeCycle

It means that there will be no more Fedora 9 updates. So no more 
security fixes, no more package updates.

Your existing system will run just fine, it just won't get any more 
updates. You can try to monitor the Fedora 10 and 11 updates and pick up 
security fixes from there but upgrading is probably a better long-term 
solution.
