We have received numerous reports of excessive FriendFeed posts showing up in Facebook this evening. While we are not 100% sure, it appears to be an issue on Facebook's end due to ignoring application settings. We have disabled all FriendFeed updates to Facebook until we are sure the problem is resolved.
See http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... for more information - it seems to also have impacted Twitter's Facebook app. Again, we are not sure if it is a problem on our end or not, but we are investigating now. - Bret Taylor
Thanks Bret! FWIW when I checked the FF app settings in FB they were not the same options as I saw when I first set the app up. - FFing Enigma
my freindfeed application is not working on facebook, and fr rest of.. - Madhav Tripathi
Click. Flip a switch and that's it. You guys rule. - Pete D
Thanks, Bret. I've disabled it on my FB page and hope that cures what ails me. Appreciate the FF peeps being on top of it. - Derrick
Yet another reason I'm happy I don't have a FaceBook. :P - Trey Crossan
Good thing I only posted once to Twitter tonight. The duplication only happened once. Thanks for letting me know. - Louis Gray
Yay for communicative admins! - Brett Kelly from iPhone
*looks at own FB account* HOLY SHIT, WTF?!? - Joe The Sausage
Yep, I have drug references now due to not having context. Thanks alot FB. Thanks alot. - Jimminy, CoG of FF
I had the same with Twitter - Mo Kargas
Thanks Bret! - Andrew C (✓)
No problem, if I knew it was on your end, I wouldn't have cared, but thanks for letting me know about the situation. I was confused because it happened right as I was trying out a new twitter game. This was compounded by the fact that the game has no controls for turning off public messages. I'll bet they plan to add them later, but right now they want everyone to hear about it. It’s a... more... - Michael Fidler
Is it fixed? I'm afraid to go look:) - Michael Fidler
So, is it fixed?Every tweet, every everything is showing up as individual news feed posts for all my friends, this is too much and I'm likely to piss them all off. Options ... 1.Stop tweeting etc. 2.Ditch the FF Facebook application. Hmmm, it's a no brainer. Anyone got any updates on this? - Michael M Bailey

Our data center (SVColo) performed an upgrade to their core network switch this evening. Something went wrong, and the operation took 30 minutes instead of 5. We apologize for the problem.
we are back - K.D.
I wondered. Glad you are back! - Rachel Lea Fox
No problem. Just don't scare us like that again ;) - Mark Krynsky
Ok otherwise it was going to be an topic on Twitter. - Madhav Tripathi
I forgive you. - Vezquex
I thought FriendFeed would have deployed mobile datacenters across the US by now. - imabonehead
Talk to Scoble about getting you guys on Rackspace :) - Jason Cronkhite from Alert Thingy
Jason: we would love to host FriendFeed but any hoster will screw up from time to time so I would rather win their business on the strength of our technology and service. Our CEO puts his personal cell phone out there (I don't know of any other hosting company CEO that does that, plus mine is +1-425-205-1921). not to mention I have some major motivation to make sure FriendFeed stays up. :-) - Robert Scoble
Compete with Wave and let people run their own Friendfeed servers. - Vezquex
Thanks! I almost sent SOS via Twitter...but u guys were fast! :D - Roshan Ramachandran
Oh, and it was nice of you guys to arrange your downtime for when I was flying and off the net! :-) - Robert Scoble
The upside is I saw the 'new and improved' twitter web interface for the first time. When do I have time to do that normally :D - Micah
@scoble, that's just it. I've only known Rackspace to screw up once and it was due to some guy driving a car into the data center. Plus, all the other perks you mentioned. - Jason Cronkhite
Andy, long time :) - Micah
Something changed with this downtime, didn't it? All images are now hosted on friendfeed-media.com instead of the old i.friendfeed.com - Mitch
Mitch, the friendfeed-media change was deployed yesterday and unrelated to the outage. - Paul Buchheit
Madhav Tripathi
For me Twitter goes down again.
Yes, Twitter is being unresponsive. That happens. - Louis Gray
People are not so serous about Twitter. That happens. - Madhav Tripathi
why is my twitter account suspended? they didn't say anything, idk... should i make a new one... - miles roxas
absolutely you should make more than one, as I have, and contact support for it. - Madhav Tripathi
For more info read my this post http://techshali.com/twitter... - Madhav Tripathi
thanks tripathi - miles roxas
you are welcome. - Madhav Tripathi
WOW! I saw you vid. really cool... - miles roxas
thanks. - Madhav Tripathi
Mike Fruchter
Disgusted with Disqus. Spammers have plagued this service. I'm tired of getting spam bombed day after day. Switching to Intense Debate.
I use this service only for leaving comments, And I have no friends on Disqus. - Madhav Tripathi
I thought IntenseDebate had recently complained about their own spam problem as well. Has anyone compared Disqus, IntenseDebate and JS-Kit Echo with regards to spam control? - Rob Diana
Rob, I have been hearing great things about JS-Kit. I'm heavily leaning towards it. - Mike Fruchter
JS-Kit looks fantastic. - guruvan (Rob Nelson)
Disqus is toast on my blog. It's spam riddled beyond belief. - Mike Fruchter
There is no mechanism in place to detect 50 spam comments being left back to back on different posts from the same IP. Surely they need to do something about this. I have been a Disqus backer since day one, but this is the final straw. - Mike Fruchter
That is a shame as I know they are definitely trying to curb the issue. I hope they can break through whatever issue they are having. - Rob Diana
JS-Kit is looking better and better every minute. - Mike Fruchter
Rob, yea I agree. By now they should have there act together though. They are very behind the curb. - Mike Fruchter
Disqus cannot handle even the most obvious forms of spam. Which is too bad, because I love their API and generally like their service. - Carter ♥ HTML5
Yeah, I went with Intense Debate and never worried about Disqus again. - Spencer
I'm in about the same place. I'm thinking about moving back to WP and Akismet. - EricaJoy
Hi Mike, any new experiences with JS-Kit? Had (almost) no spam up till now - Jeroen De Miranda
You may be a few days too soon - the new Disqus launches this week with improved spam support. Also, have you added your Akismet key to your settings in Disqus? They just added that recently. - Jesse Stay
I'd like less hype out of Disqus and more product improvement. - Cliff Gerrish
I looked at JS-Kit, installed and could not import my comments. No reply from their support either. I installed Intense Debate and so far so good. Plenty of bells and whistles. I installed Akismet with it as well and no spam has gotten through. Impressed so far with ID! - Mike Fruchter
I just turned on moderation for any comment with a link and required registration + confirmation for commenting. Temporary solution until I can switch to something else. - EricaJoy
I had tried ID several months ago; at that time I ran into some serious bugs (like comments from one blog appearing on another blog). Guess those bugs have been ironed out in the mean time. Good to see competition and probably more diffentiation, that is best for all users! - Jeroen De Miranda
I haven't had any spam issues with Disqus + Akismat - andy brudtkuhl
ID and Disqus both support Akismet at the moment. Disqus added Akismet sometime last week IIRC. I switched from Disqus to ID and back in the last few months - it was a relatively painless process! - Daniel J. Pritchett

It's practically guaranteed that Sarah will be blogging by the time she is in kindergarten. She's a natural.

She'll make more sense then me! - Johnny
sure. - Madhav Tripathi
I can't handle the cute! - joey
joey, just another day at our house! :) - Louis Gray
I like the leg up. Ilia still sits that way when using her fake laptop. - Anika from fftogo
Make sure she takes breaks, so she doesn't develop RSI. Eventually, MacSpeech Dictate might be the way to go. - Victor Panlilio
Anika - a scandal! A fake laptop!? Don't you love your daughter? :) - Louis Gray
:) mine has a real laptop...but it doesn't work. She is happy to use it, though. - WoH: Minding her Botts
I see she's practicing the LOL in the second pic. - Mark Evans
She is, Mark. Note she is looking at Google images for puppies. She may have found an LOLdog. - Louis Gray
I can't believe you let her drool on a beloved Apple macbook! - anna sauce
OK she's cute, but still! - anna sauce
For the record, even when I don't click "like," I like all the photos of your cute twins. - Rex Hammock
Pea, my Mac has lots of stickers. That's my wife's (on loaner from her school), and it only features Seesmic. - Louis Gray
Thanks btw, to Anna, Rex and all for your nice comments. We enjoy the twins and enjoy sharing them with you. - Louis Gray
Proof that Mac OSX really is childs play - Kevin J Hatton
Oh Kevin... (shakes head) :) - Louis Gray
Kevin: lol - Kevin Arth
Or, easy enough a child can use it - Jesse Stay
Way to start her on the best platform, I'm surprised she's not blogging already. - Wayne Sutton
Make sure you start her off with wordpress or posterous :) - Wayne Sutton
Twitter + Worpdress + MacBook Air = "Look Who's Talkin'" :P - Adam Jackson
Never too young to start, but she should start with microblogging before she moves up to full blogging. Get her a Twitter account and let her bang on the keyboard just like 5 yr old @miamalarkey and make sure you archive those tweets for posterity. - April
sarah needs a cn sticker i see - Allen Stern
Dude. Allen... you fired her brother. She remembers. - Louis Gray
چخه بچه .... خراب میشه :دی - فرزاد
louis - the economy is bad - i got mouths to feed - i would be open to talking to sarah - she seems more the blogger type - matthew likes to apparently beat people up - Allen Stern
like that baby has a mac and i dont >=/ - Marissa
so... do you let Sarah hammer your mac, Louis? or just your wife's? - Trish Haley

Posterous Finally Has An iPhone App, Could Have Been Way Better - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
"Posterous is doing great, I am listening some good news very week, but posterous is still a time pass platform, it could not make its identity as a core blogging platform till now. People use it for posting RSS, photos and short updates." - Madhav Tripathi

Facebook Begins Testing Facebook Lite, A Faster Simpler Version Of The Service
I hope my account gets this soon :) - Paul Buchheit from Bookmarklet
heh, so did you know about this paul? :) - MG Siegler
Hmm. - Micah
Someone mentioned it earlier today. It sounds very promising. - Paul Buchheit
Umm... Facebook Lite == Friendfeed - Bindu Reddy
It looks like a FriendFeed-version-of-Facebook to me :-) - Florin Grozea
is it against twitter? :)) - K.D.
thx paul :) - MG Siegler
i agree with bindu. i'd like to have a light FB with a smooth & powerfull FF in it :-) and of course, the iPod/iPhone app to it - Laurent Dieterich

Louis Gray
Hi Facebook, It's Me, FriendFeed. This Relationship? It's Complicated. - http://www.louisgray.com/live...
That was quick! Look forward to reading this one! - JCunwired
Because just like in high school, sometimes the sweaty jock who doesn't wash his hands after using the john still gets the best girl - while those of us who carried her books and wrote her poetic love letters and timed our walking to go by her locker at just the right time find ourselves on the outside looking in again." You nailed it Louis! - DJ Stevie Steve
Nice post, Louis. Was waiting to see what you'd write. :) - Kali
well said - andy brudtkuhl
this is perfect, Louis. Nicely done. - Vicarbott
Super-poke. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
My immediate reaction was Facebook will push ads onto their users. I think FriendFeed could be seriously screwed up with live moving ads, so that's hopefully out of the picture from a purely usability view. Friendfeed is all about realtime web information. I then wonder how in that case will the monetise the relationship. My guess? Facebook will show live conversations and hopefully they will rip out the poor IM implementation in Facebook. The purchase may be nothing more sinister, I hope... - Mark Aitken
Well said Louis. This is the big question. - Mark Krynsky
Okay, so now I'm ready to cry. Excellent post, Louis. Thank you! - Ladyepiphanybug
Excellent, you've captured my sentiment very well. Mark - I disagree. FF is an excellent platform for floating ads based upon our behavior, and it is just about the only platform in existence where the algorithms for ad placement could have been done right - and welcomed. - JCunwired
Louis's reaction is the one I most wanted to see. Thanks for not disappointing us, man! - Daniel J. Pritchett
Very nicely done. Puts feelings across perfectly. - Roberto Bonini from iPhone
"FriendFeed is the one that has a 4.0 GPA and had big dreams of an Ivy League diploma. And yet, she ends up with you - the Silicon Valley equivalent of your local state school. When you come rolling in with your heavy car, big wheels and pumping bass, we don't care how much money you say you're worth - we still don't trust your grin when you open the door and say "hop in"." - anna sauce
I'm *loving* the high school stereotypes as metaphor, btw. - anna sauce
jcunwired - I hope it's unobtrusive, don't mind people making money, but lets hope it's sensible. My worst fear is FF is seen as a threat and silenced, but I'd doubt Zuckerberg would be so brash.. - Mark Aitken
This metaphor reminds me of the "Forrest Pimp" strip on Sinfest a few years back: http://www.sinfest.net/archive... - Daniel J. Pritchett
We are watching. - WoH: Minding her Botts
Nice post. - John Mueller
Brilliantly said. Don't think it could have been said better! - Matthew Horton from iPhone
I just learned about this minutes ago. Louis it's not 4 big companies. there will only be three after Microsoft merges/acquires Facebook and Google buys Twitter. This move makes perfect sense for Facebook and it's what their SocialTV initiative needed to really work. I see big things for it in Facebook's future. I don't know how I feel about it though! - Michael Fidler
Somebody wrote that this is just about getting FF's tech talent. Don't you love how all these social networks conveniently forget who it is who makes them valuable? - Dawn
That was a very enjoyable read :) And the point about bright startups having dim perspectives at the end is alas the truth at the moment: you have to be able to bootstrap your finance, have revenue from the start (membership, affiliates, whatever) that funds your growth. Or find a way to get sold to the big boys (although there are big boys outside the immediate industry that might... more... - Iphigenie
As always very well said Louis! - Jacque
Good post and commented on your blog. I need to get back into that habit. :-) - Mathew A. Koeneker
yes, your comments are treasured on my blog, they will not be sold :) - Valeria Maltoni
Really great post, Louis.. We all will be watching to see what happens. Interesting if it goes the same way google's acquisitions all have. Seems like when they started buying up apps, they killed them. And so it goes.... - Sheryl
Louis - that post is awesome... I just laughed out load with that one... nice!!! - Susan Beebe
I had suggested facebook to buy friendfeed in one my blog post. - Madhav Tripathi

Life streaming via Friendfeed I always felt like a kind of a partner investing something of me in something greater... Now I discover that this investment counts for nothing. No one was or is committed to keep the style and special features that made Friendfeed attractive in the first place. No one is committed or loyal to the user base and the investment of life talent and prestige... more... - Spaceweaver
Robert Scoble
Now that FriendFeed has been sold to Facebook, looks like the real-time tie to Twitter isn't working well. Is it down? What will happen to that?
As with all things twitter, its difficult to know whether it is down deliberately. - DGentry
Twitter has been having probs since the DDOS attack... Fits and starts ... Not sure why. They went down completely yesterday for a short while.. Like old times :) - Jesse Newhart
It's been off & on for most of the week - Owen Greaves
but where is the fail whale....that icon isnt appearing as often, even when down :-) - Richard Binhammer
Twitter dun got murdah'd when this deal went down. - Brad Williamson
Twitter API seems VERY flaky today. Long delays in updates on Plaxo too. - Larry Hawes
i haven't really noticed since i only go there a couple times a month - Chris Heath
Posts from Twitter are sometimes taking several hours to post to FF, but been seeing this for some time now. - Rick Bucich
Seems Scoble found a spoon to stir the pot with. :) - Shaun McDonnell
it seems the tweet count reset after the outage as well - Terry Bruce
they would be silly to alter FF drasticly, one of the key benefits of buying it, isn't the tech, thats reproducable, its got to be the user base.. so they ain't gona do anything that pisses us off too much.. - Nathan Vingoe
Maybe you're in the dog house. My tweets show up in FriendFeed within about 15 seconds. - Mark Trapp
Twitter was down. I think Facebook is more concerned about Google Wave than Twitter. If Google Wave is a success, Facebook's time on site will diminish. FriendFeed is forward thinking enough to introduce features/tools to Facebook that will defend against Wave. - Peter Warnock
and what fun will follow - if it's like throwing the gauntlet online? - Carolyn Wood
that would make a great conspiracy theory - Dobromir Hadzhiev
This latency exists for a long while now. - Amit Morson
The fb folks are probably pretty busy. They recently shelled out quite a bit for that/this talent:-) - Carolyn Wood

Poor Google Knol Has Gone From A Wikipedia Killer To A Craigslist Wannabe - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
Poor Google Knol Has Gone From A Wikipedia Killer To A Craigslist Wannabe
Poor Google Knol Has Gone From A Wikipedia Killer To A Craigslist Wannabe
"Sadly, Knol just never panned out. Google should just end its misery, just like it did when it killed other under-performing projects such as Lively and Google Notebooks. Knol will never come close to Wikipedia. It can’t even cut it as a classifieds listing site." - Ryan - @magicofpi from Bookmarklet
Yet another example of a Google project that either went nowhere or jumped the tracks (missed its intended purpose). Hopefully this serves as a reminder to those who hype every Mountain View development as if it's going to take over the world. Google fails too sometimes. Every company does. - LANjackal
We need competition for Wikipedia, and Google would do well just to keep Knol alive, everything can bring some results given enough time, I think Knol is too young for that, I guess it appeared only a couple of months ago? - TrafficBug
I think the point of the article is that it's NOT competition for Wikipedia, regardless of what Google intended - LANjackal from IM
But dont you think of a Knol when somebody deletes your page off Wikipedia, a place to turn to when you dont like Wikipedia anymore? That would be competition right? - TrafficBug
No I don't. Most people outside of geekdom don't even know Knol exists, period - LANjackal from IM
A user-edited encyclopedia benefits from having as large of a user base as possible to keep the information in it accurate and timely. So I'm not sure creating competitors to Wikipedia will either be beneficial or successful in the long run. It seems like something that would lower the quality of both Wikipedia and its competitor. ... Not surprised to see Knol struggling. - John (bird whisperer)
I never opened an account in Knol, my decision was good. - Madhav Tripathi

Google now is indexing things from the real time web in SECONDS. Google is going real time. Proof:
http://www.google.com/search... this item appeared very quickly (even now it's only 13 minutes old). - Robert Scoble
Funny how one FF post lead to another even bigger one. - Manuel Mas
Wow! incredible! - ★ Soner Gönül
I'm totally ReTweeting this...wait...no need, Google already has the scoop! ^_^v - CannonGod
"real-time". Are you saying they're indexing information delivered in real-time? e.g. long polling, comet-ish or xmpp? Or just that they're polling more often and making results available sooner? - Darren
I can't wait for google wave. Robert, can you get me an invite? - Craig Shipp
Craig, trust me, you'll change your tune once you've used it. :) - Darren
It won't going to make Google real time. - Madhav Tripathi
i rekon google have a special feed from ff, ff pushing to google, otherwise it will create a lot of useless load to see what has changed - isn't that what google was trying to do with twitter? - simran
Darren: I have no idea. I just know that Google used to take weeks to get items into its index and now is getting them there in seconds. Anyone know how they are doing this, or are they just indexing FriendFeed very quickly? - Robert Scoble
is it pubsubhubhub?!! - abdellah
Craig: I don't have a Wave invite yet. - Robert Scoble
yesterday, I post a blog. And Google show that 4 minutes ago - kang
Abdellah: Was about to say that. - Manuel Mas
I think...Google is real-time index Twitter and FriendFeed - kang
this is crazy how friendfeed is evolving, the realtime discussion here is awesome! - Adam Benayoun
we have juste to rememeber what Greader do this week ! and remember that FF implemented simple update protocol - abdellah
Google-Wave can be used as another google notebook - kang
No. Way. Craziness! - LisaDJenkins
I think google is losing its focus on traditional search which will make it less important. - Madhav Tripathi
i can't see this share in Google... - Zee.
This is what i see when i search for this: http://stash.zee.me/Picture... - Zee.
Zee: I took a slightly more direct route with my keywords ~ http://www.google.co.uk/search... ...I still think you're right, the title should be enough to find the post. - CannonGod
If they are doing something in the real-time space it would certainly be exciting. I like having Bing around. Hopefully it'll continue to spark competition around small, innovative features in an effort to out "cool" the other. - Darren
Wow, they're really gunning after Bing's psuedo social-media search. This can only be good for the future of search...hopefully! - Steve Farnworth
This post is now in Google: http://www.google.com/search... - Robert Scoble
Wade: Hurrah! This is great news for companies who want to get indexed through keeping an active blog/community through FriendFeed. Fuck buying AdSense keywords :] - CannonGod
hope no, hope that sneaky marketers will not try to screw the system and they can't do, hope that (BTW let make the supposition that FF index is integrated in Google hmm Google buying FF?!!) - abdellah
Abdellah: Absolutely - let's all vote: Google should only index posts with a threshold of comments/likes. That's an easy way to stem the spammers who set & forget their FriendFeed with a gazillion RSS feeds to all their spam sites... - CannonGod
it's not real time! it's highly related with the links through that thread about Kevin Fox. Since Scoble is being followed by thousands of people, the link of the thread is revealed by googlebot very quickly and in a very short time google sees hundreds of links to this thread so it's directly indexed in google's search results. a few thousand internal link is enough for get a url indexed in such a short time. - Eren Baydemir
It's not indexing Twitter in real time that's for sure. I just "Googled" some of my recent tweets to no avail. - JP Holecka - Jaypiddy
Holden: my posts continually show up within minutes. I've been testing this for a while. But I've also been watching others on FriendFeed and they show up slower, so you're right. Plus my FriendFeed URL has better Google Juice so mine show up higher than others do (I have more inbound links to my account and more links from people with a high amount of Google Juice). - Robert Scoble
I guess we just figured out why Google sees value in hosting a PubSubHubBub hub! Tim Bray was asking about this yesterday, but the real value is being able to know when anyone updates their content and feeding that directly into the indexers. - Eric Florenzano
gotta watch what you write on here now since it's getting to be indexed faster. - Seth Goldstein
Google continues to amaze us - Kent Courtney
Kent Courtney is now in the mix. friendfeed has made the big time! - Craig Shipp
I have seen this on a few sites, namely donationcoder.com and my own blog. At donationcoder, someone will post a question on the forum, I get the popup notification less than 15 seconds later (I am a moderator there and have special tools to make job easier), then I'll do a quick google search for answer and find the forum post on page 1 already. I have google alerts set up for anything mentioning my blog and I usually get an email less than 3 minutes after I make a post, linking to the post I just made. - April
For me, Google's ability to quickly index comments on Friendfeed seems more interesting than yet another index of Tweets like twitturly - thestaticfrost
My partner James just noticed this afternoon that thirty seconds after Stumbling a blog entry, Google updated. Very cool. - Fikisha from BuddyFeed
Nice. Nice. Nice. - Mitchell Tsai
Google has definitely changed something because both my friendfeed entries and Posterous entries gets indexed really fast! - Svartling
the downside: you find an unfamiliar word in a post, google for it, and — tada! — come up with that very post at the top of the result page. sorta makes the 'I'm feeling lucky' button less useful :) - 9000 from IM
When it comes to really fast indexing of "normal" blog posts I think it's the PubSubHubbub integration in Feedburner that Google uses for indexing really fast. I noticed that with my blogs using feedburner. Really cool. - Svartling

Could this mean that CNBC was right??? Nooooooooooo! - travispuk
I was planning to unfollow a bunch of followers due to Twitter's follow limit rule kicking in at the ~#2000 user level. I have to wait with that then... ;) - Martin Lindeskog
FF FTW - Eran Even-Kesef
Let's see how well Friendfeed handles this Twitter outage :) - Rene Silva

Twitter being down is a a relief to me this morning! Now I can stay OFF it rather than fitting it into every 30 second change of task! n - Arleen Boyd
at this rate they will have to start sending out junk mail via the post office again... oh the humanity - Terry Bruce
Nothing seems to work, I think it will be the Friend Feed greatest traffic boost ever - Jacob Kobi Gamliel

Wondered why tweetdeck wasn't loading anything. actually got some programming work done. lol - Justin Long
friendfeed rules! - Kevin Dolan

Guess they'll have to either pick up the phone or do some work :) - Graham Bunting
Can someone with 94k followers really mock the the celebs and experts devoid of Twitter? - Augie Ray
Hey, no bogus follow messages in my inbox for a while! ;-) - Julie Barrett from twhirl
This is teaching us something about the framework of the current Internet traffic patterns. We're watching cascade scale problems from one major Internet program going down. - Melanie Reed
Facebook is giving up the ol', "Transport error (#1001) while retrieving data from endpoint `/ajax/inline_comments.php': A network error occurred. Check that you are connected to the internet" message now. - 3Cinteractive®, L.L.C. from twhirl
I think this is bigger than Twitter and FB... I think it's some interweb routes or something. I had a VoIP call going with a party local to me and two across the country and I lost the two across the country, but maintained the local party. And others are commenting on other sites showing signs of outages. - Timothy Federwitz from Alert Thingy
Twitter is Down....panic..run.,,SOS! - Veetrag

I meant what does denial of service mean? (dumb blonde here sorry) - Kimberle Kelly
If it's true..or is it propaganda? - Alex Schleber
It's down, again. - Martin Sliacky
Thank you :o) - Kimberle Kelly
Ev coming onto the BBC last night and saying that they were asked by the US Goverment to keep Twitter up and running during the Iranian protests cannot have gone down well in Tehran! - Andrew from iPod
DoS on large portions of the internet. Is this 4Chan... Chinese... N. Korea... durkadurkastan... - Ryan Cummins

maybe Robert's great unFollowing crashed the servers... no loss! Go FF - Jay Shapiro from BuddyFeed
some government is DDOS'ing the real-time internet to cover up something :-) http://leeprovoost.posterous.com/the-twi... - Lee Provoost
hmmm - abdellah
As I said, I predict a baby-boom in 9 months... wait and see! - Jordi Soler
SEO Experts can analyze their charts, celebrities and wannabe's can entertain us with video (maybe some cool Twitter Whore like stuff) , and social media experts can quickly become Fail Whale Experts. - Michele Lorito-Chase
@Lee Provost don't you thing you're going to be a little apocaliptic ? :-) - Filippo Ronco
Twitter downing has to be a lesson for all of us. if sometimes gmail or even google will be down. what we all are going to do in that situation??? - obolonskyi
@Filippo i've been suprised many times that reality is often more wacked up than the conspiracy theories of geeks :-p - Lee Provoost
I'm hoping the social media experts go away and do something useful. - Parvez Halim
@Lee this is true too :-) - Filippo Ronco
@Jordi LOL, considering that there are a vast amount of single male computer geeks out there in the twitter community, baby boom effect might be negligible :-D - Lee Provoost
what is bad here? here doesnt exist reply button =( - obolonskyi
@Lee single male computer geeks - LOL)) - obolonskyi
Go back to MySpace? - Juliana
The twitter bots are rebelling - Charles
@Flynn, go check out this Greasemonkey script, solves it: http://userscripts.org/scripts... - Alex Schleber
Come here and moan about it! - Kami Huyse
Read post on 100k unfollow - I love how people are commenting and blaming Twitter being down on that! lol - Helene
AAANND.. it's back. At least for a moment I guess.. - Alex Schleber
AAANND it's GONE! ..Again. At least I managed to send out a quick FriendFeed SOS, as in: "Still think you shouldn't have all of your favorite tweeps in a "backup system" on FriendFeed? Join here: www.friendfeed.com/alexschleber " - Alex Schleber
Either collapse or back to use their phones in voice only mode, do some shopping, get eye to eye contact ... Blame god, and then. Give a serious try on FF ;p - Marco ILLESCAS from iPhone
They will still be able to Tweet to themselves - not sure if they will realize it is down until it comes back up. - Phil Harrison
I hope everyone will be ok...lol - April Mendez
Hey, can I hang out here on FF while my Twitter is down :) - Kevin Krewell
Welcome to FF Kevin! You can tweet from here too! - Arleen Boyd
Thanks Arleen. I hear all the kool kids hang out here now - like Scoble and you! - Kevin Krewell
I'm glad I joined FF yesterday, great timing! - CodeSamurai
I also micro-blog or create my own Twitter, but in more than 140 characters. - polou/indigo_bow
FF and Tumblr are working fine! :-) - Tim Moore
A good FF day- new familiar faces on this thread. - E-Advocate Network
What will the blackhat SEO experts, the SM spammers, and the social media experts do during a widespread outage? The answer is obvious: While sitting out the crisis they're fine-tuning their methodology. Seriously, your question offends me. There's a gazillion of SEO experts out there who do not abuse social media. - Sebastian
Sebastian there can't be a gazillion SEO experts! What's 10,000 keywords times 20?? (and that's being generous!) - Arleen Boyd
Would a social media expert consider it to be a crisis? If they rely so heavily on just one or two tools that it's enough to throw them into a tizzy, their expert status would seem to me to be ... questionable, at best. - Gord McLeod
Agreed. - Greg
Arleen, 10,000 keyword phrases times 20 is a tiny fraction of the search terms that are worth optimizing for. Think of the long tail. Also, consider lots of webmasters and even publishers / site owners / bloggers / Web developers ... SEO experts who are able to optimize their stuff quite successfully but don't sell or publish their expertise. Many of them, and even many SEO consultants, do make sensible use of social media, as plain users. - Sebastian
Gord, in a social media spammer's book 2 hours of outage, IOW 2 hours w/o sales from sneakily distributed links to questionable sales pitches, can sum up to way more than a good day's beer money. ;) However, "crisis" might be a term too strong for this potential loss. - Sebastian
+1 Sebastian - Bill Sodeman
I'm hung up on hop 12! - bev
I love FF! - John Giglio
come to Friend Feed? Not - Rob Cairns
You must be dying of laughter now Robert! - Arleen Boyd
Arleen: yes, reading this is fun. Sebastien SEO types are so easy to wind up. ;-) - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Gotta love it... @RobCairns says "come to Friend Feed? Not" and then his page shows ONE POST from Twitter in the past 18 hours! And that one talks about how Twitter seems to be slowing down again! (Sorry Rob, but that's just too good to let pass!) - Mark J Colonel Colonic
Robert, admit it, you broke Twitter by massively unfollowing people. The DDoS attack reports have just been a ruse to cover up the fact that you were the backbone of Twitter all this time. - Louis Trapani
Louis: that is true. I pissed the bots off. - Robert Scoble from iPhone
Keep running into the wall a few times then find alternate outlets such as ff, linkedIn, etc... - Kirsten Mitchell from iPhone
Looks like the devious plan to move everyone to FF is working well. LOL :) - Geer
Ha! The whole Facebook Twitter slowdown may have been just people clicking on spam (not a DDoS botnet). How funny! Manual DDoS. See Bill Woodcock's theory at CNet, AP, SF Gate, and The Register http://ff.im/6gLmO - Mitchell Tsai
There you go again implying the only ones that use twitter is SEO experts, the celebrities, the spammers, the bots, and the social media experts - This is definitely SPIN. Perhaps you should join CNN also LOL - RetiredTeacherD
Ironic, given your status as a celebrity social media expert who constantly spams about bots... :-P - David Kettler
Now they'll have time to shower and do their laundry! - momonalona

I will never pray for them. - Madhav Tripathi
perhaps they didn't limit themselves to iPhone: http://www.pcworld.com/article... - Roberto Ballerini
yes, first thought that was my crappy connection but that is something completely different. - Max Friedrich Hartmann
I also thought if my internet connection is OK. - Madhav Tripathi

Lorenz Lammens
Facebook is really having some issues today. Trying to report that on twitter is a challenge, as it is buggy (again....)
you are enjoying this situation. - Madhav Tripathi
very much, thank you. It is not everyday one wakes up and finds himself a digital social hermit. Thank God Yahoo weather still works, otherwise I would have had to open the windows. Still, my connection to the outside world is feeble. - Lorenz Lammens
Outsanity
Robert Scoble killed Twitter
please don't blame him, he is innocent. - Madhav Tripathi
Vijay
twitter seems to have had a major #fail? Is it only me or anyone else having trouble?
for me too. - Madhav Tripathi
Yep - and every Twitter client's stopped working. Seesmic Web shows an Error 404. It's like Twitter's ceased to exist! - Martin Bryant
same with Tweetie & nambu Martin. Had a momentary issue even on facebook status updates with a 404 Error!! - Vijay
Ditto here...I'm lost! - IHBSOnline.com
Looks like twitter is slowly coming back. - IHBSOnline.com
