Twitter and Facebook are down – don’t freak out

by Heshy Fried on August 6, 2009 · 12 comments

Just wanted to let you know that at 9:45 this morning Facebook and Twitter were both down at the same time and I thought it was my office telling me I blog way too much. I started freaking out, seriously, working a desk job without either of the two wouldn’t be good and I may go postal.

Twitter is still down, but Facebook is up but not working that well and it sucks, I was able to update my status, but forget about chat and other cool things like stalking that hottie that jusr friended you because you met each other for 3 minutes on shabbos.

When Facebook and Twitter come back online – do yourselves a favor and friend me on Facebook and then follow me on twitter.

I’m giggling in girlish delight at the ineptness of two major networking sites to stop a simple botnet.

WHAT I SAY IS…. You don’t even need a botnet to take down a site like this; just fire up your own LOIC or other favorite ddos kiddie script.
