Office Snapshots has posted a picture of the clever sign hanging on the door of Twitter’s old office. The sign was posted by the office’s current inhabitants, customer service startup Get Satisfaction.
Twitter switched offices in early July, and the move seems to have done them well. Since then the service has been unusually stable, with relatively few periods of downtime – though this may be on account of the functionality that seems to be slowly disappearing.
Update: Get Satisfaction’s Thor Muller comments that in celebration of Twitter’s increased reliability, the sign has been updated:

Thanks to Jason Moser for the tip.
First !
argh! took me a while to refresh
People still do this?
When they don’t have something to say they do it seems…
Twitter moved because they probably have more money now, so they can spend it on the better part of life, like a bigger better office!

Brilliant.
Nice one… you had me scared for a minute!
These are the things that make me love being in the tech community.
first!
Hey TC – in our universe this is pretty old news. Get fast or get relevant!
Awesome, thanks for the link Jason. Glad that me getting lost in SF could add some fun to the day
To celebrate Twitter’s kicking ass on the uptime front, we have updated the sign:

(It now reads “Twitter is up… the street”)
Thor wins.
i hope twitter never existed, i would not have to read twitter related crap on tc everyday.
what is twitter anyway? other than a useless geek thing?
Elvirs, I think you might want to look at some other blogs.
And what other sector of the community has such a sense of humor? Nobody! Gotta love techie people. Smarts add a certain twist to the humor. Or is that hours spent in front of a screen?
When all the functionality is gone Twitter will be 100% reliable.
oh no she didn’t. pwn.
Could not believe it as I could c sending/receiving my tweets… but then found from reading title second time…

Funny as hell. As much as I used to enjoy Twitter, its lessening feature set is a bummer. I now use – and totally enjoy – Plurk.
might want to do a video deal with realviewtv.com to show off your office and how you didn’t spend all of the vc’s dinero on sg&a
ha..that’s funny. Thanks for sharing. I’m a big fan of twitter and getsatisfaction.com.
@elvirs
Not as bad as iPhone crap on CG
Thor, nice way to get coverage on TC ..
like ur site though ..
I think it was originally a way to get people to stop wandering in the front door of the office, but the TC story *is* a nice bonus.
Another one of those articles that shows a slow news day, and the dilution in the caliber of Arrington’s staff
(this is not news….)
Pretty soon they will have to say “Twitter is out … of town”
Twitter is working….. to make revenues
Great stories here… http://www.goth...te.blogspot.com
Haha, this is awesome!
Next TechCrunch article prediction: Twitter Staff Gets New Coffee Maker!
And then after that: Twitter Office Bathrooms Remodeled! Visit CrunchGear for The Specs!
Enough with all the crabs… I think its kind of funny.

yeah to satisfaction for best pr ploy of the month!!!
this is news how?
Another excuse to write a post about Twitter, great! No one ever talks about those cheeky fellows.
Tomorrow: iJustine spotted wearing a Twitter t-shirt.
haha thats funny.
check out schoolshift.com –> an online resource for college students
While they’re there Twitter better start looking for a business plan, else they’ll be up…shi*t creek
I don’t get it? :/
Perfect. Twitter is right next to the Eagles Tavern – now I can buzz their offices and then get beers from a dive bar.
