I died a little today...

Any one have a defibrillator handy? My heart is broken. Tastespotting has been taken down! Check the calendar...no, it's not April Fools Day. WTF? I'm crushed, there are no words. When linking over to my favorite food porn website this morning, instead of finding the usual hundreds upon hundreds of brilliant, delicious recipes and photographs all I saw was this depressing message:Tastespotting was my daily dose of foodie inspiration where I could effortlessly browse thousands of recipes from the world's best food bloggers, all conveniently lassoed into one organized and searchable site. This is indeed a sad day for food blog stalkers...hmmm...

wait for it...

FOOBLALKERS!

Sorry, I got carried away by the possible discovery of new blog terminology. But this is no time for fun and games. This is a serious crisis in my online world. I feel crippled without Tastespotting: like I'm fumbling around on on the Internets with no where to go, no one to help direct me to the next perfect summer salad recipe or cupcake extraordinaire.

Tastespotting, I'm begging you, come back.

i'm sorry for your loss. do you need the r.s. to organize people to bring in meals?? or will it make you even sadder when they don't look like tastespotting??

btw:loved the food/porn site comparison. classic.

Gina, this is tragic. I can't believe I just found out about this amazing site and now it is gone! I am so curious what the legal allegations are? Maybe it is for the better, addictions are not usually a good thing.
