SheGeeks: Where Would You Go If Twitter Disappeared?

During the Twitterverse splintering incident of 2 weeks ago I just stood by the sidelines but I was maaad at twitter for being flaky and even madder at myself for being so dependent on Twitter. I set up twirl with friendFeed support so I could use friendFeed as a hotswappable backup if the splintering effect happened again. I think there would need to be some important mods to FriendFeed to maki it a twitter substitute, like more control over the hide settings...a world without twitter would be...weird! For my heavy collaborators it would be back toGoogle groups, Im, and email.
Without Twitter, I'd once again be reliant on a mashup of IM, feeds & social-bookmarking.. I'd no doubt try to make up the difference w/FriendFeed but would still be waiting & seeing since nothing else matches Twitter in community & variety of input. So, enough w/the scary tho'ts already!? ^_^
