If Twitter was taken down for a sustained period of time, or perhaps your own account was removed for some reason, what then would happen to your network? How many people have a contingency for such events? For me it raises the interesting question of how reliant are we on particular network providers.

Slightly freaky a person can have withdrawals from a silly online application, and I wouldn't even consider myself a major player on the twitter scene.

So what did I do then? I gave up after 1pm, sent messages to clients that there was an issue and it could take a few days before we see a good fix. Then I took the kids to the beach and wrote a blog post (while watching them play) about how it's important not to keep all your eggs in one basket with regards to social networking.

I was somewhat concerned when later attempts to sign in to Twitter timed out and did not even result in a Fail Whale.

That said, I still can't get web-based Twitter to work for me. This of course also means I can't add new followers.
