I was just reading that twitter and FB have both been having issues today, Twitter was under a full-fledge denial of service attack.

I don't get the whole Farmville thing. I've tried it. I don't get it.

Time waster, but the upside is that I get to leave notes on sustainable farming near my crops & animals. My 15 yr old ds asked me to join him.

My first crop of strawberries died because I forgot to check on them. My ds gifted me a milking cow for my trouble. lol How can I say no to a 15 yr old boy who wants to give and receive gifts of fig trees and chickens?

Facebook has been wonky for me today. One minute it works fine, the next minute nothing.

I'm still not able to get on Twitter.

LOL Somebody recently convinced me to open a facebook account after having resisted it for years!! One of my students sent me a invite to see her farm and I've been hooked ever since. hehehe I just harvested my rice, cows, sheep and chickens and my trees not 30 minutes ago so if it was down, it's up now. BTW, if anyone wants to be my neighbor shoot me a PM and I'll send you a request. I"m close to having enough neighbors to expand my farm and could use a couple more. hehe
