What I was afraid of: Twitter ruined Summize

Posted on by Perfectporridge in Social Media

Remember last year when Twitter was crashing all the time, they disabled the search feature altogether and people were making Failwhale art?

Then mid-July Twitter bought Summize, the most reliable Twitter search tool among a handful of options. I tweeted at the time something along the lines of, “Oh great, Twitter bought Summize and is going to ruin it, too.”

I can’t find that particular tweet for you today, because..yep…I just got a Failwhale trying to do a search.twitter.com (the new summize URL) search.

Great…

Summize gets its Failwhale

Hooray for 2009.
