At least in Twitter we won’t see that bad creature.

I like the way they use comedy to resolve a problem. Its clever thinking. I prefer this over other error pages. The lighter side of bugs.

Mxit is a South African messaging service that has spread from mobile (via GPRS to server)to web based too. They’ve been going far longer than any of these
two, so go check them out, maybe they can add value somewhere?

In terms of simplicity, twitter is dead! it’s messy but pownce is a little more technical and damn beautiful. Temi's last blog post..Webmaster Marketplace

@Gregory – no idea where “FAIL” came from, but it can be satisfying to use it.

I’ve been trying twitter recently, but Plurk looks much better – and love the a-team reference. Just hope there’s a wordpress plugin.

And anyone know the history of the ‘FAIL’ phenomenon? It’s come from nowhere and has been doing the rounds like crazy at work!

I never really got in to twitter, but someone invited me to Plurk the other day and I must say it is great, no idea how reliable it is, but it hasn’t been down since I started using it.

I am like you , still looking for a better of the two.

I really like Plurk a lot better, It does go down but not for nearly as long as Twitter or Pownce, and they've already starting scaling up. They definitely are taking lessons learned from Twitter. Samirb's last blog post..Plurk and Karma

That’s a good looking error page. LOL. At least, they got that right.

Is it Plurk the solution? Even though, this new Plurk is also reported many times down! How can they handle the situation when too many users come and go at any time? TonNet's last blog post..Congrats Jenny D. She's now a PhD!

Email us about it? They know enough to throw the error page, why can’t they just log it?

Fail!

@mark – yeah, as I complained before, it takes about 20 seconds to add each friend.
