Yet Another List of Ten Things To Do When Twitter Goes Down



1. Go to Facebook.com and try to use it like Twitter. So what if it is #fail

2. Did you ever notice how many birds are there in that Fail Whale Image?

3. Keep on pinging http://status.twitter.com and try to bring it down too

4. Inform @chetan_bhagat, even he can’t block this outage

5. Try to calculate how many others will be making a “10 things to do when twitter was down” list

6. Log on to Orkut

7. It’s a good time to see, if you can still reset those Yahoo and Hotmail passwords.

8. Call your girlfriend (If you have made one through Twitter) and inform her about the outage and impress her by revealing that you were the first to spot it on the twitter status page that there was actually a problem which Twitter admitted.

9. Revive your long dead blog. Like I did.

10. Try to set up a self-help group for all affected by the tragedy. Life has to go on – even without Twitter
