Well, now it’s the first time that Twitter is completly unavailable. First I thought Cotweet is having problems again, no Twitter is gone…what happend? Mashable didn’t write anything yet (probably still sleeping), but I am sure there will come something up.

Now let’s all imagine Twitter will never be online again? What’s going to happen?

- Nothing would happen because the mainstream still doesn’t get why we are on Twitter or what it is
- 25% less posts on Mashable and Techcrunch
- Fastest new Social Media trends in Social Media history would come up
- Copycats would come up with the same idea
- My colleague “you would be unemployed”

What do you think would happen if Twitter disappears from one day to another?
