Twitter is experiencing outages across the globe [Update: It’s back!]

While Facebook may be celebrating Friend’s Day – its anniversary – it looks like not all is well in the social media world: Twitter appears to be experiences outages across the globe.

Down Detector is showing multiple reports of service interruptions in different locations.

These outages happen from time to time, but it’s pretty ironic this one happened on Facebook’s birthday.

We’re contacting Twitter for more information, and will update this post if we hear back.

Update: And we’re back!
