Twitter’s becoming a bit like that dream you have where you’re walking down a crowded street, and then suddenly realise you have no clothes on.

The internal retweet function has been switched off again – and with it, all those precious retweets. No announcements, nothing on the status blog as of yet, and the main blog is far too busy patting itself on the back for introducing German language support.

Lucky, I guess, that like tens of thousands of other users, I never stopped using the organic, old-fashioned, and considerably more reliable RT @ manual retweet.

Ho hum.
