Twitter Mouseover Problems

Whoa! So really, I only have a Twitter because of blogging (okay, and I love a good one liner), but this shit is crazy today. I went to reply to an @, and then all of a sudden, it's telling me that I'm RT something from Unilever or something like that. Eek!

Apparently, Twitter's gone haywire with a spam-link generating bug, with the site getting about 140,000 new tweets of this variety every 10 seconds. Ouch, Twitter. Merely hovering over an affected link with automatically have you posting various smut sites in a matter of seconds, as my account is doing as we speak.

I've read a variety of things, that it will be fixed in three hours, maybe five, but Twitter hasn't released anything on their official blog. Real nice, Twitter. Security firm, Sophos, detected the vulnerability earlier today, so we'll see how long this takes to fix.

That's one hell of a whale fail right there, and I imagine there's going to be some serious Twitter withdrawal going on worldwide today. Apparently, you can still get your fix by using any number of third party sites, including my favorite, Ping.

Good luck, Twitter users! Be safe out there.

UPDATE: Twitter has finally posted something on their blog. Even if it is short and useless.

Hi Everyone!

Hey everybody! I just moved over to Blogspot from WordPress and it's...been an interesting transition to say the least! So please forgive me for what my blog looks like right now! I promise it will get better soon! Especially when I get a chance to get ALL of my stuff imported. Whew!

Also, my comments didn't import! Get to leavin' 'em so it doesn't look so naked around here, haha.

So I Have A Blog

I have typed and deleted in this little box about 15 times already. Blogging is way harder than I thought. So here goes...

I wanted to just start out with a blog of things that I thought were interesting or whatnot, but I have this urge to type things about me in here for the first post. I got this account to blog about things that I like, things that I hate, things that happen in my life, all that jazz.

And when it comes down to it, sometimes you just have to realize that you really don't have any substance.

Shit.

Well, here goes nothing:

A Little About Me
I'm a 20-something married girl living in Pittsburgh.
I'm actually pretty lame now that I think about it.
I work a full-time corporate whore job. It pays the bills.
I go places, I do things, most of them will probably end up reviewed on here.

Can I start a real blog now? Yes.
