Twitter returns after an hour outage

1 Min Read

After about an hour blackout, micro-blogging site Twitter has become active again.

The desktop and mobile site went down around 7:50 pm, displaying a “Something is technically wrong” error. The app was also not working. The site returned around 8:45 pm but took a few minutes to regain full functionality.

Twitter’s status page said little more than that was an “active incident.”

TechCrunch reports that it’s not the first time Twitter’s had a hiccup in the past few weeks. The social media giant was hit by a direct message outage earlier this month. In fact between June and July, most of the major internet companies had some form of outage, knocking themselves or other sites offline in the process.
