Social Networking sites under attack?

[Nuriko]

So for the last hour or two Twitter has been down, people reporting LJ also having problems. I just tried Facebook and getting lots of random errors when trying to post stuff or change pages...Anyone know what's going on?

Want to see how long before mass pandemonium breaks out, due to the fact that I can't update my status on "xxx" site. Oh the lulz that will be had. Really good idea if it is a hacker.

As long as BG LJ is safe, I'll be happy.

At least they are doing a better job than Krye did when he fail DoS'd the BG forums a year and a half ago.

I think it's funny because what you said is true. People apparently like to write an autobiographical account of everything they do throughout the day as if what they do has some profound meaning. It gets really bad when you have someone on your friendslist that lives on facebook and makes 20-30 posts a day about what they are doing.
