Cloud computing is a way for businesses to access extra computational resources over the internet. Without it, the internet as we know it would malfunction.

With the Twitter limits today, I think we are already seeing the fallout begin.

It took me 3 minutes of slow loading to get this and this.

It's been over half an hour now and I still have a blank twitter page, what if today is the day twitter actually goes down.

I’m gonna be honest, as someone who couldn’t give less of a crap what happens to Twitter, it’s just hilarious at this point. This is the kind of dumpster fire that warms your hands when it’s really cold out, so you just keep coming back to look at it.
