Geeks on Tour:  Since my last post on ‘What is Twitter?’ I’ve come to further enjoy the quick and easy way that Twitter allows me to keep up with so many of my friends, contacts, and information sources on the web.  In the RV community, we follow: RVnet, GypsyJournal, boondockbob, walkaboutgroup, RVCookingShow, rvtravel, TheGoodSamClubHitchitch, RVBusinessMag, rv05, GoRVing, fmca_, calamityjaimie, and Cellular5.  If you’d like to follow them as well, all you need is a Twitter account, then click on one of these links and click the Follow button when you get there.  If you follow other RV related Twitter accounts, leave a comment and tell us about them.

Since they’re limited to 140 characters for each ‘Tweet’, it only takes a minute – one glance at my Twitter home page –  to catch up with all of them.  Then, many tweets have a link to full blog posts if I want to read more.

Last week Twitter was down for a few hours.  It was a Denial-of-Service (DoS) attack, where attackers bombard the target website with so many requests that it can no longer operate. (Think of a run on a bank that makes a bank close its doors!)  This time Twitter was the target – specifically, it was a particular Twitter user.   With over 44 million users, an outage like that is sure to be noticed.  The outage spawned a humorous topic on Twitter called, ‘WhenTwitterWasDown’ …

“… I had to speak to my wife.”

“… I got work done.”

“… I started following people in real life, it was kind of creepy.”

and my favorite:

“… I curled up with a good book, and lost interest after the first 140 characters.”
