Twitter Was Down, Repercussions Reverberate Through The Job-Seeking World

Hope you weren’t planning on getting a job via #Jobangels or #Tweetmyjobs or @MicroJobs or any of the other hundreds of find-a-job-on-Twitter tools this morning, because for hours, you couldn’t. Twitter wasn’t just down, it was so down that you didn’t even see a FailWhale when you tried to load the page. Down and dirty down. Downer than down. That’s how down it was.

Overheard in the office: “The Twitterati are going to shitterati their pants.”

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16. The online event and workshop will feature speakers including The Onion‘s Baratunde Thurston (left), Facebook’s Morin Oluwole, and bitly’s Tim Devane. Register now.
