Five things I did during the Great Crash of 2009
So when I suggested earlier this week that perhaps we should all have a dark day from time to time I didn’t mean for Twitter to take it personally – especially not during the work week.
Could have done without their servers (and Facebook and Friendfeed) crashing yesterday — but looks like we survived.
- Found out about new blog posts via old fashioned RSS — instead of everyone’s Twitter updates
- Forwarded emails with “RT @username” in the subject line
- Posted a status update directly on Facebook for a change
- Pasted a picture of the Fail Whale on my computer monitor hoping to cover up the dreaded 404 error messages
- Sent txt messages to all my friends telling them “I’m eating quesadillas for #lunch”
