This was an interesting twitter issue today

I got email from DLVR and even live journal about my own twitter today. I thought maybe something happened so I went ahead and did what DLVR needed for me to regain my twitter. Apparently, an issue happened today which locked some accounts.

I saw the third tweet on my phone.

I think this was an honest mistake somewhere and unfortunate. Sadly, I believe Live Journal also had a problem as I tried to log in to my account to reconnect my twitter and its sayingt something about my password being out of date. While I want to fix that, seems like I’m now not getting email as I should. That address is up to date as I got the email saying my twitter was having a problem.

Mistakes happen, and I think this was an honest one. Were you effected by this twitter issue today? Sound off. Also coming out, some accounts were also suspended by mistake as well. They’ve reversed this too. More to come if I get any updates on this. Just wanted to pass this along.
