I promise not to give you a heart attack if I can help it :) I am still in the dark as to why TS shut down. Sarahmarie - me too! Marcie - thank you :) Nicole - ha ha ha!! Christine - yeah, because you've always been one of those problem commenters ;) right! Eva - try foodgawker.com, Chuck of SND just started it and it's awesome! Elisabetta - not to worry, my dear. It is not your fault that you were posting information. It is the responsibility of those nutcases who can't seem to obey the simple rules of common courtesy when writing on someone else's blog comments. *sigh* Graeme - So that's the term I was looking for... ;) Goto foodgawker.com!! Mikah - thank you, you're very sweet. Rosa - Head over to foodgawker.com! Laura - no worries! The nutcase commenters aren't as bad as stalkers (yeah). You should check out foodgawker.com if you miss Tastespotting! Peabody - same here, chica. Kristy - have a look at foodgawker.com Diana B - no, you didn't jinx it :) you're not a stalker if you comment and don't say creepy things. i am graduating you to READER instead of STALKER (I think maybe you meant LURKER) :) Mark - oh, my nutcase posters are not the same as that particular stalker person (I am also familiar with that annoying individual). Farah - *sniffle* Sindy - well, Chuck has started foodgawker, which I think is a nice substitute for now! Elizabeth - I really loved it too, the concept was brilliant. You will never be a nutcase, hon. The nutcases are people who rant on and on about things they no nothing about. If they were standing in front of us, they would be the ones ranting on with the spittle flying and all :) Thanks for your very kind words. Hande - hello dear! Hmmm, I'm not sure you and I are talking about the same person. I had a couple of folks rant at me on the old post about gingerbreadgirl03 (saying she's very nice) or ranting about God and copyright (huh?!) so I had to delete those... Then I got blasted to deleting the images and one accused me of doing it because they're Italian (no, I didn't delete her comment because she's Italian, I deleted it because she's an idiot). Anyway, it all seems to be unearthing a lot of folks who behave poorly online. Go figure! Tartelette - it looks like Chuck of SND already did! foodgawker.com What a guy! :) Barbara - I feel the same way! Some folks just never learned manners... WoRC - GBG used to be a tad bit of a prob, but she's been relatively tame for many months. I think the main problem is bigger than that and might have involved copyright issues for Tastespotting, but not sure. I'll drop a line soon - I've been uber swamped lately. Susan - I really enjoyed the sharing aspect of it too, although I often wondered about folks who posted other people's images when those sites explicitly stated no photos were to be reproduced without permission. CJ - the other sites are like notcot.com (style) and I can't remember others. I just looked at TS. Try foodgawker.com! Tarah - go to foodgawker.com, folks are posting there now although the rules are slightly modified from TS! Mark – Oh, you’re so silly!

I was so upset when I came to find out that Tastespotting was gone. Not only did it really help my blog with more visitors to come, it was also something I checked daily just to see what I could make soon. I still check back sometimes in hope that it might be back :[ Makes me sad.... Oh! I was so upset when I came to find out that Tastespotting was gone.

I found this blog, and many others by visiting TS. Thank God I bookmarked most of them! I have seen some comments on other sites that suggest the same group who ran TS has other sites, but haven't found them yet. Anyone know anything more? BTW, let me take this opportunity to thank you for your blog, which has become one of my 'must reads'. RIP Tastespotting. I found this blog, and many others by visiting TS.

But really, I loved seeing all the creativity and hope I can remember all the great sites.

Tastespotting is still new to us but we liked it when it was still up. We added lots of our recipes to it. It was a fun forum while it lasted. I haven't been on there lately, so not sure exactly all that's going on . If ya got the time Jen, shoot me a quick e-mail to enlighten me a bit more. So this "gingerbread girl" is a problem?
