What if today were Gawker’s last day on earth?

jakoblodwick:

Imagine if you woke up tomorrow and it was gone.
Would your life be different, at all?

Reblog your answer.

Are we talking about Gawker Media or Gawker.com?

I wouldn’t care if Gawker.com was gone, as I don’t read it. 

But I enjoy Jezebel, Lifehacker, and sometimes Consumerist; so my life would be slightly negatively impacted if they were to go away.  Although, the internet is so redundant, I’m sure I could patch the hole pretty quickly with similar content.
