Toluu : Twitter Status

Twitter Status

Updates on the status of the Twitter service.

We’re experiencing some delays in the amount of time it takes for updates to appear in timelines. Working on this now.

Update: Normal message delivery has been restored.

Multiple accounts hacked. Situation stable.January 5

A number of high-profile Twitter accounts were compromised this morning, and fake/spam updates were sent on their behalf.

We have identified the cause and blocked it. We are working to restore compromised accounts.

As a precaution, it would be prudent to reset your Twitter password and make sure email in your settings is your own.

More details to come.

Don't Share Your Secret Info!January 3

If you receive an email notice saying you’ve received a Direct Message with a link that redirects to what seems like Twitter.com, be careful about entering your Twitter credentials. Instead, look closely at the URL to see if it’s not really Twitter but a sketchy phishing site like http://twitter.access-logins.com. If this has you feeling a bit weirded out, feel free to change your Twitter password.

Update: The suspicious site is being blocked. More information at the Twitter Blog.

Updates to name search / Email from YahooDecember 23 2008

We announced our new Name Search product today! One note: if you update your profile information, it may take several hours for the new data to be reflected in Name Search.

We are also having a deliverability problem to Yahoo email addresses. We’re trying to get this resolved.

Update: The Yahoo mail problem has now been resolved.

Unable to postDecember 22 2008

Some users are unable to post from the web site due to a bug introduced on Friday. This problem does not occur in all browsers (FF 3.0.x still works but not 3.1, for example).

We’ll be pushing out a fix for this as quickly as we can.

Update: This was fixed yesterday.
