Sites you can't live without

Which website if banned and blocked by your country would you be in uproar about?

OK now here's the background to the question. The Stop Online Piracy act would only affect the USA and as such only those US companies who have offices there. As such they could move out of the US taking taxes, jobs and the benefits outside the country to someone with more open arms and the US citizens would lose rights to access the company and its content (bet the goverment.

The one I'm thinking about is Facebook which if it disappeared from the US there would be an uproar and jobs lost as well.

I was wondering which companies would be affected and could the USA cope without them if they decided to leave the US.

You may have 10 internets. I can't wait for that site to say "Yes, it did destroy the world..... joke."

or

"Yes, it did destroy the world, but then by the use of magic and some science goobly-de-gook it was all put back together and reality as we know it was restored."

OT : Nope.

Hmmm... lemme think...

1. Escapist -- well duh, I only spend most of my free time here
2. YouTube -- no music, no gameplay or LP watching, no TV or movie streams, no cool indie videos
3. http://mspaintadventures.com/ -- bricks will shat if it's blocked before Homestuck ends

The Escapist. YouTube. Cracked. Aaaand nothing else comes to mind.

The only site I could think of, that I couldn't live without, would have to be my birth-site.
