Tweet Deck's Latest Issue

Twitter was forced to take Tweet Deck down, again after a bug allowed people access to other people's accounts. To make it better, Twitter didn't even notice. Users noticed that they could do it.

It is unknown how long it was running that way, but if you have tweets on your account that you didn't put, now you know why.

Since Twitter purchased Tweet Deck, last May, problems have become much more common. Recently a flaw made it look as if people weren't following people they actually were, causing great distress amongst the masses.

Long time users are quite familiar with Twitter's own "Fail Whale" but as Twitter grows it is no longer a joking matter. With over 100 million active users, including businesses and government agencies tweeting more than 250 million times a day, a problem on Twitter literally can effect the whole world.
