Twitter’s reliability continues to be spotty. How long are we going to wait for them to sort things out? Or at least publish a plan of attack?

This is getting way past ridiculous. Sometimes it seems like the damned whale will fall out of the sky if you breathe too hard on your screen or click on your mouse too fast.

While announcing two new directors/advisors (including Jeff Bezos of Amazon.com), the Twitterers That Be included the following paragraph in their June 24 post on the Twitter blog:

Project: Runway

Twitter will become a sustainable business supported by a revenue model. However, our biggest opportunities will be worth pursuing only when we achieve our vision of Twitter as a global communication utility. To reach our goal, Twitter must be reliable and robust. Private funding gives us the runway we need to stay focused on the infrastructure that will help our business take flight. We will continue hiring systems engineers, operators, and architects, as well as consultants, scientists, and other professionals to help us realize our vision.

You said it, guys. Twitter must be reliable and robust.

Which it still isn’t. Not yet.

I’m getting just a bit tired of waiting. How about you?
