Is anyone else having problems accessing Twitter

I've had problems for several hours now, did someone break it :confused:

    There has been a lot of problems lately with Twitter. I think it's growing so fast and they are trying to keep up.

    Yes, it is down right now. The API is completely choked down as well.

    I believe a lot of things is going on, the fast growing audience and possibly the idea that Google might be buying Twitter. Who knows, but I believe it will settle down in a week or so.

    It was you wasn't it Kim??

    Yes it's all over the shop recently. Rather unstable. Looks like they need a back office major update.

      Haven't had any problems with Twitter today. WF, on the other hand, is showing me plenty of "Database Error" messages.

      Dan's content is irregularly read by handfuls of people. Join the elite few by reading his blog: dcrBlogs.com, following him on Twitter: dcrTweets.com or reading his fiction: dcrWrites.com but NOT by Clicking Here!

      Dan also writes content for hire, but you can't afford him anyway.

    I've been seeing a lot of twitter users complaining as well. And as Jason said, I've seen the "fail wail" almost everyday myself. (:

    Twitter is definitely going through a big growth spurt. Hopefully, things will get settled soon.

    Hi Kim:

    Twitter often has periods where it is very hard to sign in or move around the site. Sunday eastern time 7-10 was nearly impossible.

    It did get rectified and I hope the same on your end.

    Have a fantastic week.

    I heard Twitter's been acting up because of Ashton, Oprah, and CNN overload.

      Couple of news stations were reporting twitter problems Friday - said the "growth of users was overloading it" and causing downtime.

      I thought the wording was odd as I didn't twitter made you grow.

      Curious, wouldn't Twitter have rights to that domain? Remember reading sometime ago that you should only buy generic domain names. Does that still apply?
