witter crashed Tuesday morning, leaving users unable to access the popular site or social media app.
As of 9:30 a.m. GMT the site had already been down for around half an hour, with users greeted by the apologetic but vague message: “Something is technically wrong.
Thanks for noticing—we’re going to fix it up and have things back to normal soon.”
The outage – which also appears to include Twitter’s Tweetdeck application – appears to be global, or at least affecting western Europe, Israel and parts of the United States.
There has been no word yet on what caused the site to crash.
