Going through my old tweets I came across this one from December 2008:
“Apropos of nothing: Is it me or has Gawker gone from funny to mean, boorish and rude?”
Now, two years after the site was dead and buried, The Guardian is reporting that there are plans afoot to revive it next year.
Here’s a thought: sometimes when something dies, it dies for a reason, and it is better to leave it dead.
