Running Notes :: Twitter IS DOWN!

About Me...

I'm Kathy Brown and I've been an application developer in Lotus Notes/Domino since 2005.

Prior to working in IT, I've had numerous careers including an Investment Analyst and even an Actress (long ago and far away).

And I (try to) love running!

Twitter IS DOWN!

Category Twitter
I think I may need help. Not because I am particularly worried. But because it went down this morning, and at least five people pinged me privately to "jokingly" see if I was okay.

I then practically had my own little Twitterverse going on my screen with five different chat windows open, trying to explain to be people that I was fine. I was coping. I could handle it. Really, I am okay.

So the question is, how many times have YOU hit refresh?

11 - Someones trying to prove some point. Somewhere. And it happened right after I updated my twitter background. Urgh!

Its crawling right now though. Facebook faced some problems as well. People are furious, they actually might step outside. I refuse to believe that though. ;)
