Twitter, where are you?

Over this past weekend, twitter has experienced some kind of outage that I’ve never really seen before. Twitter has a history of some pretty serious downtime but this is different. The site works and it seems like I am getting updates from some of the people that I follow, but for some reason I am just not getting updates from most of the people I follow. Applications like alert thingy are showing updates (pulling from the api). But the website and any other clients that access the data directly don’t seem to work.

Now problems are understandable and everyone expects sites that have massive amounts of traffic to have some problems, but there has not been a peep from twitter (the company) about any of the issues that have been going on. It’s been since at least friday and not one word? Are they working on it? Going to be fixed soon? Later?
