Twitter is down...
Nov. 18, 2008 Filed in: Technology
Anyone else going through some Twitter withdrawal this morning? I’d read some reports early that the site was down and then back up. Seems it’s down again.
One thing I’ve noticed with Twitter is that it does seem to bounce up and down quite a bit. Also, uploading to TwitPic seems to have it’s problems every now and then. Overall, are you happy with the service or have you given up using it all together because of the problems?
Do you Twitter?
Has anyone heard of Twitter? It’s a social website that asks the question, “What are you doing?” The idea is to be able to track and know what your friends are doing 24/7.
I started using it a few days ago and quickly started thinking, does everyone really want to know what I’m doing all the time? I mean, do you really need to know that I’m on my way to work or sitting at my desk?
I guess there are people out there that find information like that useful but I got a little tired with answering to Twitter all the time.
So, I still use it but now you’ll find less serious updates most days with the occasional accurate update. I’m sure you’ll have no problem telling my believable entries from the little white lies.
I did find it useful over the weekend tracking the US Nationals Road Race. SoCalCycling was updating their Twitter throughout the race which was fun.
To see what I may or may not be doing, check my page.
