I emailed twitter twice today which led me nowhere. I am not a spammer, my only mistake was I joined a get more followers service &amp;amp; I gave them my twitter password. I am sad as my friends on Twitter must think that (Golden_Choice) is a spammer. &lt;br&gt;Thank you for listning. &lt;br&gt;Christine  &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Christine Kosmas</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 13 Aug 2009 05:47:41 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Twitter Down: Twitter Doesn’t Know Why</title><link>http://mashable.com/2009/08/06/twitter-down/#comment-14649528</link><description>&lt;p&gt;DoS and DDoS (Denial of Servicel  and Distributed Denial of Service attacks had been around for 10 years.

Could it possibly be, I thought?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I chuckled at the thought of so many people world-wide having anxiety attacks over Twitter's absence in their lives.  And then I moved on to my long overdue newsletter and blathered away about how wonderful my Twitter life is!  Ah, the power of denial.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What's a true bummer about it all is that there were a ton of great tweets in my Tweetdeck profile that are now gone.  I'll have to go onto the main Twitter site and see if they are there.
