Arrgh … Twitter Fail Whale Again

Twitter's Fail Whale

Oh Twitter, why must you taunt me so often.  Once again ‘fail whale’. You would figure that  an online company this large, with the millions of users it has, and the power to deliver real time news worldwide would be able to scale as well as its counterparts.  But they have not been able to.  Recent reports show that their popularity has halted globally either due to lack of interest due to features, competition, or the fact that you can only send short messages (Maybe you just crash too damn much!). Regardless, a site this important should not have the many issues it has, especially compared to sites like Facebook with it’s multiple interactions, applications, and global reach, which takes more traffic.  Just shows that not only the small guys have woes .
