With the Twitter limits today, I think we are already seeing the fallout begin.

It's been over half an hour now and I still have a blank twitter page, what if today is the day twitter actually goes down.

The login-block appears to be exasperating the issue, by creating a pull loop, they are DDOS-ing themselves. ~source

They turned off non logged in people, to save resources and it caused the opposite effect, too bad they fired all those developers.
