More goodness for the upcoming District 9 and Inglorious Bastards movies.  I can't wait! I'll be seeing both hopefully.
I've been playing with Posterous for the last month or so on again and off again.&nbsp; So far I really love the service. It is quick, easy and makes cross posting to the majority of the sites I post to and does it quickly through email, something I do a lot of.&nbsp; If you want they even have a bookmarklet that allows you to post website content quickly while you surf the web.&nbsp; As this is mostly what I post, it makes it quick and easy for me.&nbsp; What I've noticed, however is how quickly I get page views using Posterous.&nbsp; Because I've set up several services when I post to my blog a notice goes out to Twitter which seem's to be driving traffic up.&nbsp; I just installed Google Analytics as well and am going to start tracking my user data a little closer but if this trend holds up I can see a lot of value in getting my word out quickly and also get a lot of views.&nbsp; Anyone else notice this?

These were my sentiments exactly when learning of FriendFeed's acquisition. I absolutely love these (see http://bmbufalo.posterous.com/hitler-mad-mj-died)!

Twitters Response to Today's Outage

Twitter's latest outage has been caused by a massive Denial of Service attack that also seem's to have affected several other site's around the internet today. Here is their latest post on what went on:<p />

Update on Today's DoS Attacks

As noted earlier on our Status Blog, Twitter is back in action. The continuing denial of service attack is being mitigated although there is still degraded service for some folks while we recover completely.

Over the last few hours, Twitter has been working closely with other companies and services affected by what appears to be a single, massively coordinated attack. As to the motivation behind this event, we prefer not to speculate.

Please note that no user data was compromised in this attack. This activity is about saturating a service with so many requests that it cannot respond to legitimate requests thereby denying service to intended customers or users.

We've worked hard to achieve technical stability and we're proud of our Engineering and Operations teams. Nevertheless, today's massive, globally distributed attack was a reminder that there's still lots of work ahead.
