Twitter website down, apps don’t work

PanARMENIAN.Net - At the moment, the Twitter website is down and both first and third-party Twitter apps can't send or receive messages, according to Neowin.

Twitter users are used to seeing brief amounts of downtime for the social networking service, with error messages that show that the servers are over capacity. However, it's rare that a long period of downtime, such as the one that's happening today, occurs.

So far, Twitter has yet to comment about the downtime. It could use its Facebook page to issue a statement but so far it has yet to make such an announcement, Neowin says.

Meanwhile, Twitter has posted a statement on its Status page (which is apparently still working), which says, "Users may be experiencing issues accessing Twitter. Our engineers are currently working to resolve the issue."
