It's a real pity this great way of communicating is taken away from us, due to technical failures.
Plurk is a nice alternative, but it's a burden to build your friend list again.

They will work out their technical problems and move forward. My personal use *had* gone down though and you see people moving to Friendfeed and others. I think Twitter is far from dead.

I know it gave her a new appreciation for what I do. On Twitter, as I haven't seen anywhere else, A-listers who didn't join in the conversations were avoided, while even if you weren't well known, if you participated and offered intelligent/humorous/useful ideas, you could attract quite a following. To be honest, I don't see Plurk as an alternative for a few reasons. LOL Just realized that was a long enough discussion for a new blog post, but here one of the biggest reasons: It's too much work. Twitter's value was in its simplicity. The hard part with Twitter was developing a friend base. After that, it was easy to keep up. Plurk takes more work to follow conversations, especially if someone else posted the first plurk in the conversation. I absolutely agree about building the friend list!
