Update, 3:53 a.m. ET: Twitter is now back online for some, but many users are still experiencing delays and outages.

Twitter is down. We know your first instinct is to whip up your Twitter client and complain about it, but you can't because, well, Twitter is down.

I’m surprised your school doesn’t require it, to keep contact w/ parents or students, who might be asking questions.

Back in Nov ‘15, I emailed my GD’s math teacher, asking if I could set up an appointment to meet w/ her [at her convenience]...since I help my GD after school w/ her math homework, and have questions about the curriculum.

You are a settler! You settle for things! Love that commercial.

LOL

I want a class-action law suit b/c I won't and don't have a smart phone ...and probably never will ....I feel like I'm missing out on special money saving offers b/c I don't have one.

I see people doing amazing things with their smart phones.

It’s going to really suck for a lot of people when TSHTF.

Not to worry, Glenn Beck has started a fake Twitter site..

Twitter and Facebook could totally disappear for forever, and it would not affect me one little bit.

When you have no potable water and no Twitter ....it’s a full-fledged apocalypse.

Signs ‘o the times ...maybe a few will wake up.

Teenagers might be forced to actually speak to adults and parents. Gracious!

HA!

Who cares?

I don’t use Twitter and won’t use Facebook.

FB is a door for worms you’ll never see.
It’s not about ID theft, it’s about using your computer as a server for whatever they want.

It is FR on steroids...or meth

Mine was up for a while and now it is back down again.

Great gif. He can’t think outside the box..err...glass. Bite off a corner till it fits !!

“Trump’s fault.”

Didn’t Zuckerberg proclaim himself “Leader of Facebook”?

[Vaquero]

Retired early for health reasons. Best thing I did was buy an iPhone. It is my most used internet tool. Better than reading family circle in the doctors waiting room.
My big problem is when I'm doing something on it and I get a call. I forget how to take it and often drop the call.

The CRS is strong in this one.

Without Twitter, How will Trump attack his opponents now?

[RayChuang88]

I think either Twitter had a massive server failure or a coordinated hacking attack from a state-sponsored entity.

Stay OFF Social Media. Keep your private life, private
I agree. Besides, you are not so important to everyone else that they have to know when to go to take a dump.
I don't understand the fixation of "social media". The addicts don't realize that they are easily manipulated...like sheep to the slaughter

What’s a twitter?

What’s a facebook?

[bgill]

Can’t decide if that’s hilarious or shameful.
