Twitter Be Down, Be Down The Most

We originally profiled Iterasi back in January when they launched at DEMO. The name Iterasi comes from the Portugese from iteration. The idea of the service is simple: save pages in their exact state for later use. The example is easy: you do a search on a site with an embedded Google map. You want to save the state of the Google map but currently if you favorite the page, you lose the actual map locations in the results. Iterasi saves the exact state of the page making it easy to come back to. It’s not saving the live page, rather the current page at the time of the save.
The saved page is called a "notarization" and monetization comes from very specific ad targeting since the page is saved. They have also released a new widget. The widget gives people the ability to use iterasi to embed clickable thumbnail images of the pages they are saving.
The other announcement the company is making is Alex Williams is joining the team as the Director of Product Marketing. Alex most recently worked for SplashCast Media.

Website monitoring company Pingdom is out with their downtime study for the top social networks for the first four months of 2008. Guess who leads with the most downtime? If you guessed Twitter, you win the prize! Pingdom reports that Twitter has been down over 37 hours in the past four months. Coming up right behind Twitter is the service that wants to go to Prom but has no date, Pownce. Pownce claims an exciting 13+ hours of downtime.
Big player networks MySpace and Facebook came in with 1 and 2 hours of downtime respectively. Now this makes sense, Twitter and Pownce are new and while it seems to the 250 that Twitter has been around forever, they haven’t. Part of their downtime is caused by maintenance and upgrades. Larger networks such as MySpace and Facebook have huge valuations which allow them to have the server capacity and production environments that don’t require downtime for changes.
Below is the downtime chart and also check Pingdom’s analysis.
