Who tweets the twitter?


Twitter is down at the moment, well I think it is down.

I am not quite sure, I assume its down for everyone, not just me, but I don't know how to find out, you see, I would normally go to twitter to find out if a service I use (such as Gmail) is down or not.

All I need to do is look at the trending topics, and bang! there it is, "Gmail" or what not, then have a look at a couple of tweets, and yep, Gmail is down.

But this morning I am lost, twitter itself is down (I think), and I don't know how to work out what is going on, am I the only one with problems? Who tweets about twitter when twitter is down!?!?!?!

Hang on, tweet deck just popped a message up, nah, false alarm I think its still bust.

What do you do when twitter is down? Where do you go for information?

Edit - Was just reminded of the twitter status page - http://status.twitter.com/ , its quite the same thing as getting real time updates from tweets, the info on the status page is a little general, and a little out of date....
