Twitterfail

Twitter always was an unreliable service, but after the DoS a few days ago they found a new failure mode: twits that are longer than 50 characters or include an URL get rejected with 403, which Web UI hides and pretends that server isn't responding. Logging out and back in helps sometimes.

I think I had enough. Seriously, I'm just going to dump small stuff into Meenuvia now and drop Twitter. It's just not worth the pain.
