IsTwitterUp? Nope

I've removed the IsTwitterUp website as it's become a lot more stable

2025 Note: I used to enjoy Twitter, that was a long time ago. These days I would not recommend anyone spend any time there at all. I wish Twitter (X) blue-whaled now more than ever!

I figured it was time to close off the istwitterup.com website.  It was a bit of fun back whenever Twitter was up and down but since then Twitter has got far more stable and the novelty of my site has warn off.

The site now redirects to this post, when the domain expires I will not be renewing it.
