Twitter is Experiencing Outages
Twitter was having a rough night on Monday. The service was working intermittently, causing the term "Twitter is Over Capacity" to trend nationally on the microblogging service.
The technical issues -- not a full-blown outage -- led to a few memorable tweets on the subject, including:

Pingdom, which monitors Twitter's uptime, reports that the service has not been down for a moment all month. Twitter also hit 100% uptime in September. Its last major outage was on June 21 -- the biggest the site had experienced ineight months.
