So, i was just reading CNN and came across a news story about Tumblr going down and how people started to freak out! It got me to thinking what would i do if Nikonites went down? I don't have Facebook, i don't have Twitter or any other social profile. I rarely come to Nikonites on the weekends..... so what would i do? I certainly would not freak out like some of these Tumblr users - first, i don't even know what it is and don't really care either - and make it sound like my life just came to a halt! It just shows you how some people will start to center their lives around a social media website <is that the right term?> and more or less get married to it. It's rather quite pathetic if you ask me. I'm in my late thirties and anyone would think that i must be into all of this "social media" crap, but it could be no further from the truth. Anyhow, here i am, scratching my head about the "me" generation.... time to get back to the real world now.

I would find another site as I think sites like this are great for learning and sharing. I like the discussions and the folks on here, but the world would continue to turn if I had to go elsewhere.

If Nikonites goes down, it will probably be blamed on BUSH! Everything else has been! :)

If it went down? I frequent other photography forums, so it would't be the end of the world, lets say.

Something to also consider, you would be better off spending time taking pictures than frequenting forums that talk about taking pictures! ;)

I know I'd go to photo forums a lot less. Lets face it, this one is perfect for me because it is Nikon specific, and its one of the good ones on tapatalk (access via my phone)!

Well I have Facebook, twitter, Instagram, and 3 other forums I'm regularly on, this one is one I'm least active on, no reason just think I may be overloaded with social networking :p

I'm pretty sure I would freak out and not leave my computer until it was fixed. :)
