Facebook and Twitter DDoS attacks

August 6, 2009 by D. Gardner Leave a Comment

After trying to tweet and post stuff to facebook today I realized they were having problems. Then I saw the report from the WSJ – “Twitter Says Hit By ‘Denial of Service’ Attack – WSJ.com http://bit.ly/YcjHD” I have also checked a couple of other sites that do a bunch of reporting on Social Media and they are all a buzz.

It brought me to ask the question, “what if twitter and or facebook” was just gone. If twitter was gone, well, life would go one without much of a deal. I would however, be quite sad if Facebook went away. I have reconnected with a bunch of cool people from my past. And I see it as a great way to stay connected with these people and keep connected with people as I meet them.

We will see how it all plays out, I wonder if North Korea, or Iran has something to do with it. If they do I hope our government and other government put an end to that kind of non-sense.

We may just have to go back to e-mail. But I think Google wave will help with some of the new age of communication.
