The day the lights went out @Twitpic

Well, maybe not a software problem...

Twitpic is a service used by tens of thousands (maybe more) to share photographs on Twitter.  They went down sometime this morning. The approximately 50 tweets per minute I'm currently seeing complaining about the outage leads me to believe people value this service.

@TwitPic says there's a power outage at their data center. Maybe someone kicked the switch on the power strip under the desk. :)

OMG! A useful (heuristic) metric AND a real use for Twitter, both at once!
