Twitter was down for 6 days in 2007

(RWW)
According to Royal Pingdom, Twitter was down for almost 6 days (5 days and 23 hours to be exact) in 2007. For any other company, this might spell doom, but not our LittleCo of the year! If anything, the service has gotten more popular in spite of the frequent down time. Those with "Twitterdiction" may have suffered through some nasty withdrawal when Twitter went offline for extended periods of time, but abandon the service they did not.
