I want my Twitter!
Posted on 06 August 2009, at 9:59 am, by Larry Greenberg
The very popular social networking site “Twitter” has been out of service for most of this morning.
Millions of Twitter users are probably going through serious Tweet-withdrawl by now.
I know I am. Â :)
Anyone know what’s up?

Cool. It was a DDOS attack. Likely!

It’s up for me, but Facebook is being flaky.

Gmail is acting up on me too. Facebook has been screwed for me for at least a week. Try clicking on my profile. Just try it. You can’t see it. I am ALSO not blocking any of my friends either. Been pissed at Facebook all week for that!

I was busy at home this morning, and noticed as I was juggling three laptops that I was getting intermittent login errors … but eventually it sorted itself.

Gmail ok now. I was beginning to wonder if it was a all out attack on social networking sites.

Twitter seems to be back for me….DoS is rising on the twitter trends.

TwitterFox keeps toggling Red & Blue for me – up, down, up, down …
Facebook has been largely cooked for me all day as well.

Gee, I wonder if Twitter’s sys admins ever changed their server password from “password” hehe.
August 6th, 2009 at 2:25 pm
They did change it…to 12345!

Hey – that is the combination on my luggage!
