The blog is gone, but Pittgirl lives on in t-shirts

The death of The Burgh Blog has been big news in the Pittsburgh blogs and media. The Burgh Blog was one of my favorite blogs and a well loved blog here in Pittsburgh written by the anonymous blogger PittGirl. Last week she shut the blog down and removed all of the archives. Spreadshirt shop partner Wear Pittsburgh had created a limited edition t-shirt for PittGirl last year that was very popular (the t-shirt even made the newspaper). Now that The Burgh Blog is gone, Wear Pittsburgh is back with a new t-shirt to commemorate PittGirl.

The end of  The Burgh Blog made big news here in Pittsburgh last week.  Wear Pittsburgh’s founder Mike has put together a nice round up of what people had to say about the end of The Burgh Blog here. The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette published two different articles about the end of her blog which you can read here and here. While the blog is gone - she has been posting occasional updates on twitter, not the same thing as the blog but you can get a taste of her humor.
