At about 4:45pm Pacific Time, Twitter crashed. I wasn’t too concerned — I know what living with Twitter is like! I merely turned off Twitter and picked up my iPhone for a phone meeting and a walk.
A couple hours later, when I returned to my computer, I logged into Twitter.
And I nearly threw up.
There was my account, my handle, my 25,000+ tweets, with 0 followers and 0 following!!!

Superb blog you have here but I was curious about if you knew of any user discussion forums that cover the same topics discussed here? I’d really like to be a part of online community where I can get comments from other experienced people that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Also would you mind if I show your site with my facebook group? There’s a lot of people that I think would really enjoy your content. Please let me know. I’ll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back later Thanks a lot.
This happened last year too if I remember right, I was going to ask my FIL for some of his heart medications!! 🙂 glad they fixed the glitch
Seriously! My heart literally almost stopped beating!
