Anyone use Twitter?

It's an occasional glitch when twitter gets overwhelmed - should be back up by tomorrow.

Yeah, a number of folks (including my wife) are reporting that.

Interesting thing: we logged into her account using Tweetdeck on my machine. It didn't get her history, but new tweets showed up. The "realtime Twitter streaming" feature it uses is apparently unaffected by the outage.

And oddly enough TweetDeck on my phone hasn't updated in almost nine hours. But TweetDeck on my PC is working fine now. #firstworldproblems

Oh yeah? I've been retweeted by William Gibson. #YouMayBeAwesomeButIAmMoreCyberpunk

I got retweeted by Anderson Cooper. Suck it! #YouMayBeCyberpunkButIAmMoreCurrent

I got retweeted by @almightygod. I'm veritably a saint, assuming my beatification can be completed in less than 140 characters.

I doubt your claim to sainthood, considering that your post was the 666th on this thread.

BTW, what's with your eyes going red now all of a sudden...? also, what's the deal with that Carmina Burana music playing on the background huh?

Listen, if you're going to claim that the @almightgod tweeter feed is not an authorized feed from God himself and is instead just some guy trying to be funny, I'm going to have to declare you a heretic and set you on fire. WITH MY MIND.

@milkmandanimal

I'm just saying, noticed any vicious rottweiler following you around lately?

I gave in. http://twitter.com/BobGilliam

I scanned this thread and followed a handful of you. I'll go back through and follow more if I decide to stick with this craziness.

Oh you.. I just checked, and you're sitting on under 200 tweets. Don't worry until you hit the 5,000 mark

Heh, I'm about to hit 7,500

Yeah, but you got to account the awesome* factor as well, bringing my total to about 20000 : D

Hmm... 7,770 here. I'm sure that number is significant somehow.

463 for me. I do not tweet very often, but I'm tryin'. I'm tryin' real hard.

168, but it's about quality, not quantity.

It's the same as being able to say "it's 8=D" and not 8====D .. how do you feel about that?

>_<

Huh. I'm over 9,000.

It's 1006. Go kick his ass.

I've posted two Twitter messages this week, doubling my total, so I guess this is a thing now.

If you get followed by this guy ^^ don't run away, it's only me #itsadeadmansparty #notreallygettingthehangofthis

Apologies to anyone who started following me. I've opened Pandora's box.

@ThePrederick, although I think everyone here interested in listening to me has found me already.
