One of my current favorite social media sites is Twitter although I’ll be the first to admit that I didn’t get the service at all when I first attempted to utilize it. That quickly changed once I established some contacts and began “tweeting” back and forth with very interesting people.
Lately, it appears that Twitter is experiencing some serious growing pains (see image below). This could be due to the fact that Twitter traffic has significantly increased, and I’m sure they’re trying to add resources on the fly to accommodate the newfound popularity.
I’m not going to bash the service since it’s a personal favorite, but the frequent disruptions of late are frustrating to say the least.
Hi Roger… they just received $15Mil in 3 round investment/funding within the past two days so I believe they *will* be taking care of this! The founders have been spotted acting very happy despite the frequent downtime of Twitter!
See here: @allaboutenergy morning Twitterers! I have some Twitter news. They are being blessed w/ $15M more! http://tinyurl.com/67antd – we helped, I claim my share .
Have a great weekend!
In Joy!
