America experienced a crisis this morning at about 9:00 A.M. EST when Twitter and Facebook went "down."

Have we become so dependent of this means of communication that we experienced deep anxiety or did we just go with the flow?

Was anyone else desperately searching Google, TechCrunch, or any source available for news?

Did anyone else get irritated when it was not the immediate and top news story?

What have we come to?

It serves as a good reminder that technology is as fragile as anything else in physical world.
