In brief, Twiddict is a service which lets you use Twitter when its down. Twiddict then tries contacting the Twitter API to submit your Tweet when it is back online. It seems to work pretty well in practice and I recommend checking it out.

I signed up for twitter last year sometime, got bored of it in 2 days. Recently started to use it more… but are people who use it that addicted to it that if it goes down for an hour here and there, they don't know what to do with themselves?
I like it, I use it, but more ofen than not a good majority of the top users are nothing more than spammers. I follow Guy Kawasaki – 99% of his tweets are promoting something on one of his websites, never does he really tweet about anything else, just links. Are people that addicted to twitter?
It's sad that an entirely new service has sprouted due to the down time of Twitter.
I started using Twitter about a month ago, and much like Mike above, I got bored rather quickly. Maybe I'm not following the right folks.
Some people are tempted to say, why don't they just fix Twitter, but I know it's not that simple. However, at which point does all this downtime make the Twitter guys rethink they way they do things?
The irony is, a service like this could really put a load on twitters server ie. what happens when the twitter server starts back up, no doubt it would get thousands of update requests from Twiddict.
Please don't take this as comment spam, but oddly enough I think twitter is currently down, and I think WWDC bloggers are to blame. Article is h e r e
When Twitter is down (which is quite frequently), it's a good opportunity for me to catch up on other things that actually contribute to my income.
I like Twitter and I've made some cool contacts and generated a bit of traffic from it, but I wouldn't go so far as to sign up for an additional service when the original is temporarily busted.
I'm really quite new to blogging. Can someone please tell me why I should join Twitter?
