Twitter’s Down and It Bothers Me

May 21st, 2008 · 6 Comments

Twitter Shot DownWhen Twitter goes down, seemingly for no reason, without any warning, it just bothers me! How can its outage irk me to a point to blog about it?

Twitter’s a tool that I’ve actually grown to love and use a great deal. It’s definitely not fun to see it go down unexpectedly. It’s like driving on the main highway, where I always commute on, and have it closed down due to an accident. It disrupts my routine, and I even dare to say it stops my productivity. I always want to be “in the know” and well informed. With the current people that I follow, I usually get a lot useful information. I’ve grown to appreciate their contribution to my knowledge base.

When Twitter is down, it just feels wrong. Maybe I should have joined the “Twit-Out” group and not use it for a while. The alternative is FriendFeed where there’s plenty of discussion there about Twitter being down. Just follow Scoble, Shey, and Bwana. You can also find me on FriendFeed.

Let’s hope Twitter Inc. can get their acts together and stabilize the site. I hate to see everyone’s leaving the service and render it unusable.

    Hi Reggy,

    Yeah, I guess I’m just too geeky: I’ll blog about everything and anything on the internet.
