Twitter Down due to DDOS Attack

The Fail Whale strikes again! According to this Guardian article, Twitter has been down due to a Denial Of Service attack since 3pm. I’d tweet the link, but obviously I can’t. Oh no, I can feel the shakes starting as I haven’t been able to look at my twitter stream for a few hours. Oh well, I’d use Facebook but my fear of flying sheep and superpokes prevents me from logging in .

Edit: OK, so it’s back up now. Looks like twitter gadget on my iGoogle page hasn’t realised yet. Logging into twitter.com is working. Guess the Twitter guys payed the ransom or relocated their servers to OZ.
