I write this as I wait for a late train - the perfect time for a bit of Twitter action - but the service is down once more.
Sure, their actual uptime rating might not be so bad, but it is one of those services that people (including me) really miss when it isn’t there. Like a comfy pair of shoes, we don’t appreciate it enough when it’s here, but can’t walk properly when it’s gone. Or something.
In any event, while I’d love to switch to a service with 100% uptime (which probably doesn’t exist), I really do love Twitter. When it’s good, it’s good.

Hey I loved the analogy of a comfortable pair of boots.
I came here looking for your email to send you a best wishes message. Saw this and decided to post comment here with ‘My Heartiest Congrats’ to you for popping the question and her for saying Yes!
Though all of them are special,I have a special affection for my early days twitter friends and you are one of them.
