Last week a fun meme went through the Twitterverse... "When Obama wins..."
Well today as news broke that former presidential candidate and former senator John Edwards would endorse Barack Obama -- after months of speculation as to whether he would endorse at all -- Twitter crashed. Related? Most likely. While Twitter has been on the fritz lately, the Obama/Edwards tweets seem to have sent Twitter's backend beyond the land of 500 server errors and off the deep end.
Will President Obama save Twitter? Or did attorney general-elect John Edwards just break it?

SOOOOO frustrating to have Twitter crash like that while covering the endorsement and trying to twit about it. (But, as you say, Twitter has been on the fritz lately anyway...)
If ever there was a good reason to have it go down though...this was it.
I love that istwitterdown.com link. Hilarious
