The day the tweeting died
Yesterday Twitter went down in a denial-of-service attack.
Across the country millions were in a state of shock as they had no way of informing the world that they were drinking their coffee, sitting on the couch, or going to the bathroom. President Obama declared a state of emergency and ordered that millions of hand-held whiteboards be distributed so that people could describe every event of their lives to those around them. However, this caused some unintended problems as many of the “tweeters” did not know what the two-legged creatures surrounding them were – they had forgotten what real-life “people” looked like.
