Twitter Down Again
A month after the world freaked out when on June 21 Twitter was offline for a few hours, the site that many say is the natural replacement to Facebook has crashed again, forcing people to do the unbearable: turn off their computers, go outside, and interact with other living human beings.
Not surprisingly, nobody has retweeted the notice that Twitter is down...

Is this an austerity measure?
They just want to make the Kardashians piss off a little bit.
Someone audited the fed and tweeted that all the gold is gone ...
"Just another targeted test of the 'Kill Switch.' Nothing to see here folks. Now move along, and go about your business."
QE 3 is now sure to happen.
Well, may be not because of twitter, but how about this:

Blaim it on IT, ...AGAIN ?!
In other news, productivity is up 38% this morning.
Arab spring/Iran attack interruptus !
What is the purpose of twitter anyway?
How'd we ever get by without it? /sarc off
Maybe...but I use it to custom stream financial news...put out by the outfits I care about...acting, as such, like a giant filter on typical MSM propaganda. As well, it is a great tool for putting digs to your classic zombie portfolio managers making their typical mainstream BS recommendations.
So there is that...
You are part of the 10%
That's pretty sad. It must be all of those unfulfilled extroverts who live vicariously through others and need constant floods of attention to feel good about themselves.
I gave you a green triangle to cheer you up a bit.
Great, now go forth and alleviate some suffering: http://www.worldvision.org
...turn off their computers, go outside, and interact with other living human beings.
NEVER!
That would require being in direct view of the evil day-star.
Bwahahaha good1
Stuxnet > Twitter
omg what will we ever do!!
Between twatter and shit.
taint
Must be Merkels response is pretty big and nasty
That was my thinking ...
MUST STOP the Merkel response no matter who gets shutdown!
Here's hoping it stays down this time.
Anyone besides me noticed the silent takeover of web blogs?.
If you want to comment on 50-75% of any topic now, you either have agree to sign into Facebook, or Disscus(sp).
To me this is an ominous sign.
Use http://10minutemail.com to create an email account for 10 minutes and sign up for Disqus. I did. Also there is http://mailinator.com/
Facebook is a huge privacy invasion, never sign up.
There is TOR as well.
Yep. Caught my attention about 6 months ago. Prolly makes keyword searches easier for the spooks. Fuck'em.
Carni vore already does that, right?
FB = NSA
Warn your kids....
go outside and do something productive like weed my garden? actualy physical work? isnt that bad for my health?
Yes! All that sun!
And to think that in ancient times the Sun was worshiped as the enabler of all things including no less than the promise of resurrection... now it is the oppressor... it wants to kill you, quick hide from the Sun! Those fools were in the dark and *now* we are all enlightened... what a joke.
NSA refreshing their filters
If twitter was a significant technology, I might give a shit.
two people think twitter is actually "real software" .. uh.. it limits you to X number of characters.. is that ALL you're capable of expelling from your brains?
Twitter.. you got suckered into thinking a technology that limits your expression of thought to a pathetic blurb was something exceptional. LaW|_
How can this be? The supply of twits is at an all-time high.
Birds did that long before we got here.
Who will save us now?
Who cares?
Fuck you, Twitter.
Spot PMs ignited at 6am this morn, now crashing at 12 with this Twitter stuff. Moves in Iran?
Exactly, who cares? I have never gone on Twitter and never will. Rather be in the garden.
If you had a twitter account, we would all know when you were in the garden.
And when you were taking a shit.
...in the garden, and under which vegetables you buried it.
So many tweets never to be retweeted
Is it a news in order to explain merkel's silence?
Someone is just junking to junk.
Fuck you, too, asshole.
"Twitter Down Permanently" would have been a more pleasant headline to read this morning.
Gee, usually Echelon is a quick reader.
We expect to be back in <%= deadline %>. For more information, check out Twitter Status. Thanks for your patience!
best part is you can tweet the system status of being down on the status page
Irony^2
Yeah, seems totally pointless.
The status page is on Linux and the main system is on Windows. They have an extra Linux system standing by for the days when they get a Blue Screen.
Obviously Olympic Village Sexting.
#whogivesafuck
aaawww....poor brain dead sheeple
Twitter, Twatter, blither, BLATHER - need I say more?...
as long as you can do it in 140 characters or less
Twitter has an incredibly exciting blog:
Twitter Blog Premios Juventud’s super-show Thursday, July 19, 2012This year, the superhero-themed Premios Juventud (Youth Awards) show on Univision will join forces with Twitter. With Twitter as their superpower, fans will be able to have their voices heard through their Tweets.
Premios Juventud is a show powered entirely by fans, who vote for the nominees and winners. This year, for the first time, viewers get to determine who will go home with the honor of being crowned the best dressed star of the night. As fans tweet #MejorVestido with the name of their favorite star to hit the show’s special blue carpet, Univision's social media correspondent will let viewers know who's in the lead. Fans will be able to save the day and choose the ‘flyest’ supergirl and superman on the blue carpet.
Why is that in Ingles?
Lmao hw #GerardoOrtiz walked on stge for wining Mejor Vestido, vaving all cut & hapy bloking Belinda on his way there xxx) #Cutie <3
Don't worry, they're probably just installing a new high speed interface for the NSA.
must be workin on that back door again
That's what she said.
Why they can kill you
"'Due process' and 'judicial process' are not one and the same, particularly when it comes to national security." Holder said. "The Constitution guarantees due process, not judicial process."
U is a terrorist and there is your due process, mofo.
WTF is the difference between due process and judicial process.
Oh and
Who decides when an American citizen has had enough due process and the Hellfire missile fairy pays them a visit? Presumably the group of top national security officials—that, according to Defense Secretary Leon Panetta, decides who is targetable and forwards its findings to the president, who gives final approval.
Isn't the due process how they make Velveeta?
Google Talk was down too. NSA or Chinese test?
So you were the guy on Google Talk.
ha ha, no. just saw it on /. or somewhere
Oh, the humanity! What will we do in the meantime? Gasp, will we actually have to meet with other human beings in person?!
Haha. I didn't go outside. I just came to Zerohedge to post my pithy comments. It's all interchangeable, as long as I'm emptying my worthless thoughts into some sort of digital device.
The twits can't tweet. What a shame.
Anybody who doesn't have Zerohedge on Twitter doesn't know what they're missing.
Twitter says:
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup.
G-chat and twitter down.
I don't believe in coincidence.
we should expect a new dump of emails and passwords soon?...
Maybe.
A lot of the world communicates through g-chat and twitter.
I would not be suprised to find out that this is some coordinated cyber-attack.
Relax, Barry S. Marx is playing with the Kill Switch.
"Hey, Joe, watch what happens when I do this..."
"Cool, boss. Can I try?"
"You do the G-chat."
the yahoo gang is in full force bullshit mode, no problems there!
Twitter down? now you have time to check this out:
YouTube - MIDGET v. GIANT: You Didn't Build That, James Dean! says President Obama
... Best not get in a shouting match with James Dean. (2 mins of your time weel spent...)
Twitter is currently down for <%= reason %>.
We expect to be back in <%= deadline %>. For more information, check out Twitter Status. Thanks for your patience!
Twitter Down Again
Productivity Surges Again
i'm glad zerohedge is up
