Micro-blogging site Twitter went out of order for more than an hour after it was overloaded with New Year greetings yesterday. The site crashed at midnight in Britain after recording a stream of over 16,000 tweets per second.
For one hour no one could post new messages or do any activity on the social networking site. An upset user tweeted, ?Twitter is over capacity.?
Social networking sites have made it really easy and convenient to communicate with a mass of people. A post of wishes and greetings for all is indeed an easy escape from the tedious job of messaging or calling people individually.
Millions of twitter users sent each other New Year greetings and blessings. People talked about their past year, celebration plans, New Year resolutions and came up with hilarious ?happy-high? posts.
Even the ones who were partying on the New Year's eve were active on the Twitter and Facebook, thanks to the advancement in mobile networking through which one can stay connected, no matter wherever they go.
