Help.. Twitter Is Down!
The Day When Twitter Lost its Tweets
Twitter Errors and Downtime Likely to Continue
Twitter Gives Itself A Yellow Cars For Downtime; Warns Of More To Come
Twitter whacked by hours-long problems
The Social Media News press was hot here on Monday 06/15/2010 when Twitter had some issues to sort out.
And then when Twitter was up again the ‘whining’ started. I think everything from World Cup in Soccer to Justin Bieber was blamed.
How To Get Out Of Complaint Mode
The World Wide Web or Internet as we know is still a teenager, about 16 years of age. Social Web was born around 2000, and Social Media was introduced as a chargon around 2004. And Twitter was born in 2006!
Twitter is still a very young tool, and has plenty of time to develop. As users of this great Social Network we need to start being more creative, and come up with alternative task while Twitter is down.
We all have experience power outage, our server is down, domain is down, virus, phone line is dead etc. How often have you called in for some kind of service and the message you received back is that computer is down so your issue can’t be resolved.
All we see when obstacles comes our way is delays and negative challenges. Where did opportunity take it’s way?
Next time Twitter is down why not see the opportunity to come up with 3 creative tasks you can get done in this down time. There is no reason to stop being productive because Twitter is down. If that is the case then Twitter is not your biggest problem.
Twitter Downtime Tasks
Here are some of my creative tasks I work on when Twitter is down:
I am reading 2 chapters in The 7 Habits Of Highly Effective People, and complete related task in workbook.
I am providing 2 tips and advices in 2 LinkedIn Groups.
I am reviewing my Action list, and go through how I have resolved 3 hurdles to achieve 1 action element.
Add some measurement to your task so you check off that they are completed.
Task: My positive challenge to you is to respond here with at least 3 creative tasks you can do next time Twitter is down.
