What's Going On?
We've created a new blog dedicated to status updates regarding Twitter performance and reliability. If something is going on technically, operationally, or otherwise we will put a link in your Twitter home page to a description on this new blog. This includes good news, bad news, warnings, and miscalleneous heads-up notices.
The sidebar of this new blog has a link to our current uptime statistics, our official help docments, our user discussion forum, our developer discussion forum, and our developer blog where Twitter system engineers publish technical articles and information.

Brilliant ole chap! I say brilliant!
A status page without a comment system is just....
A status page
We don't need a fancy word for it ;) Anyways, sharing the problems in this way will help the community understand.
Awesome, I will keep checking in but I am also expecting updates from @Twitter_Status too guys!!
Thanks much & good luck with all of this.
I'll take it, but not sure it really needed to be yet-another-blog. blog.twitter.com, dev.twitter.com, status.twitter.com. How 'bout just using tags and/or stricter categories better, eh?
But I'll take it. So long as its timely.
Being in Washington, this sounds suspiciously like the grand old practice of putting a new layer of lipstick on a stuck pig.
Using tumblr O.o
Nice work, A dedicated website for status. it means we will listen more about performance issues in near future . :)
The Status blog is a nice addition. I like.
I do have a few suggestions for your consideration.
1. It will help to have the URL of the new Status blog amongst the list of links that are already on the sidebar of this blog, so people can still find it after this blogpost is buried by newer posts.
2. Perhaps also add the URL of the Status blog to the Bio of @twitter and/or @twitter_status?
3. Whenever appropriate, please include a link to the relevant GSFN thread when a new entry is posted to the Status blog.
For example, this Status blogpost (Thu update) could have included a link to this GSFN topic (IM down).
This way, comments that are related to each Status blogpost can be conveniently collected in one place (and people won't feel the need to keep creating new topics in GSFN).
Thanks and good luck with the work! I'm really looking forward to having IM operational again.
Good one. But what about today, when I either get slowness and can't hit the site or when I do, I get the flying whale error "Too many users." What's going on behind the scenes when there are too many users? Is there simply a limit to how many the system can bear?
