No, this isn’t Kung Fu Panda, but it’s probably the closest real-life thing.

Dave Barry comments on August’s Twitter outage

Posted on December 28th, 2009 @ 3:27 pm

I’m not normally a reader of Dave Barry, but when I ran across his recent 2009 in Review, I couldn’t resist reposting this excerpt from the section on August about Twitter’s outage.

In an alarming technological development, hackers shut down Twitter, leaving a desperate and suddenly vulnerable America with no way to find out what the Kardashian sisters are having for lunch. The Federal Emergency Management Agency urges the nation to “remain calm” and “use Facebook if you can.” Twitter service is eventually restored, but most of the estimated 875 million thoughts that went untweeted during the outage will never be recovered, making it the nation’s worst social-networking disaster ever.
