Twitter, the US-based microblogging service that lets you share your heart and mind with the world in 140 characters or less, is not down. I repeat, Twitter is actually working as originally intended.
For the uninitiated, who are used to Twitter in its regular mode, which is a big sign saying that something is wrong, here’s what it means: the form you see at the very top of your page is for posting messages, while the messages below are from your friends. We know, we know; it’s not as fun as the big sign, but life’s a bitch. For those adventurous enough to try it out, be fast, for we all know that this will not last very long.
I’m just kidding, it’s not fully up yet. Seriously, Twitter, take those servers apart and rebuild them from scratch if needed. This can’t go on forever.
Well..
It’s really hard to livetweet from SemTech. Half of the time it’s twitter and half of the time the conference wifi that is down.
A great post! We could do with a break from web 2.0 intensity. Maybe being erratic is part of Twitter’s appeal.
@andraz: yes, that happens too often. Wonder why it’s so hard to cover a conference with wi-fi (;
