Inappropriate?I've encountered this too and I've logged a support ticket for it.
You can log your own ticket at http://twitter.com/help -
Inappropriate?Thanks for the heads up. Can you include your usernames if you see this problem. Mdy I looked at your account but didn't see the problem - is it resolved or are you missing updates from your friends still.

All of the posts I had on June 6th are missing except for the one at 12:10 am June 6th. There were quite a few I was following and commented on at least a few of them myself.
The timeline went from 12:10 am June 6th -- the next post (showing now) is June 7 about 9am -- so that's a gap of 33 hrs of posts that were there (late Friday night) and have disappeared.

Inappropriate?This just happened to me about 15 min. ago: suddenly all the "newest 20" posts were 2D old. A few minutes ago, two much newer posts appeared at the top of the list.
Have you perhaps lost (part of) one of your databases?

Twitter: Lost a database http://tinyurl.com/5xl2x8 - 06:53 PM June 05, 2008
That's a hole of about 27h 30m.
My username is the same on Twitter as it is here.
Hope this information is of some help to you in tracking down the problem.
I’m puzzled and slightly alarmed...
-
Inappropriate?Thanks, Eridanus. That's a very helpful description. If anyone else sees this problem, please report it in the same way.
This isn't because of the database problems. We did deploy some new caching code which has helped stabilize the site but may have introduced other unexpected behavior. We'll be looking into these inconsistencies right away. -
Inappropriate?Another inconsistency (have been meaning to report this for some time):
Two of my Monday tweets occasionally appeared in my timeline on Mon. evening, but then disappeared completely. They've now reappeared in my current timeline (the one with the 27.5h gap at the top) ...!
Here they are:
Eridanus 27 C and rising. This is not good. My brain goes into Economy mode above 25 C ambient. Clearly I wasn\'t built with climate change in mind. 01:43 PM June 02, 2008 from cellity
Eridanus @tontamoo: When you\'ve fixed them, let me know the solution too. I could do with a dose of that... 10:30 AM June 02, 2008 from cellity in reply to tontamoo
A couple of oldish @Eridanus replies I'd never ever seen have also just appeared in the same (somewhat broken) timeline - e.g. this one:
billt @Eridanus it's a plan! 10:51 PM June 05, 2008 from twhirl in reply to Eridanus
I’m pleased you're making progress
-
Inappropriate?Update:
http://twitter.com/home
is my broken timeline with others (as described above)
http://twitter.com/Eridanus
appears to show all my tweets (i.e. no 27.5h hole)
http://twitter.com/Eridanus?page=2
includes my 2 "lost tweets" of 10:30 AM & 01:43 PM June 02, 2008
I’m thankful that Twitter loses nothing (even if it can't always find it again).

Inappropriate?Hi Jason.
Yes, the problem still exists for me and in fact appears to have gotten worse. The account that has the problem is my private account.
When I first noticed this behavior yesterday, there was a gap in tweets in my Recent stream bounded by these two:
http://twitter.com/JimAyson/statuses/... (dated Jun 7, 2008 4:54pm GMT+8)
--- missing tweets occurred between these two ---
http://twitter.com/jkalucki/statuses/... (dated Jun 5, 2008 10:21pm GMT+8)
When I just checked now, the newer tweets are gone and the most recent one displayed is the one above from jkalucki, dated Jun 5, 2008 GMT+8
However, as Eridanus pointed out, the tweets that are missing from my Recent stream are still viewable when I go to the profile page of the user who posted them. -
Not always, though: if I go to GKeast 's profile page (http://twitter.com/GKeast), I see a gap of over 48 hours as described above - thus missing the same GKeast tweets that are missing from my timeline on my home page too. -
Inappropriate?I have the same problem. I have been getting phone alerts about new tweets, but they aren't showing up on my home page. My last few updates on the feed from my home page is at these times & dates:
02:46 AM June 06, 2008
02:31 AM June 06, 2008
02:31 AM June 06, 2008
02:31 AM June 06, 2008
10:50 PM June 05, 2008
01:33 AM June 06, 2008
What's really strange is some are out of sequence (the June 5th one inbetween the June 6th ones)
My feed on my profile: http://twitter.com/thoughtbrain is fine though.
I’m slightly annoyed.

Inappropriate?I am experiencing this problem as well @DanielleMorrill
same as mentioned above...
http://www.twitter.com/home has gap, but http://www.twitter.com/DanielleMorrill does not. -
Inappropriate?If I look at http://www.twitter.com/DanielleMorrill "from outside" (i.e. whilst logged on as Eridanus), I see a big gap between these two posts:

Looks like June 6 is gone, in addition to tweets from today suddenly disappearing. What's up? -
Inappropriate?Hi, I'm also seeing missing and out of sequence tweets on my recent page (http://twitter.com/home).. however my archive page (http://twitter.com/account/archive) and my profile page (http://twitter.com/benaud) show all my tweets in correct order .. so I guess I'm seeing the same issue as the others in this thread.
Let me know if I can provide any other information to help out ..
@benaud <-- my twitter username
I’m perplexed
-
Inappropriate?Thanks for the additional information. We are still looking into these problems.
-
Inappropriate?For me, everything after 10:34 PM June 05, 2008 is gone from my recent (http://twitter.com/home) page but like benaud, my archive and my profile page are up to date.
My twitter name is @hannahbee -
Inappropriate?I just remembered -- my account was fine yesterday when I first logged in. Then I unfollowed someone and logged back out.
I noticed that tweets were missing when I logged back in a few hours later. Don't know if the missing tweets are related to the unfollow action, but figured I'd mention it fwiw. -
Inappropriate?My Recent tab entries are gone as well. The oldest entry I have is of 7 minutes ago (Sunday morning 6:50 AM EST) when I first refreshed the web page this morning.
Perhaps my entries were not in the cache, and my refresh triggered the cache to being updated? Newer entries (since 7 minutes ago) seem to be updating when I click refresh.
It's not a web-only issue because Twhirl shows the same - nothing older than 7 minutes ago.

I’m worried that new bugs are being introduced.
-
Inappropriate?Yes, same problem, username "Hastin". I lost all my Saturday and Friday posts. I'm tweeting on vacation, and there are many people missing my tweets! :(
I’m missing my Friday & Saturday.
-
Inappropriate?My account, "mikanshibano" has same problem. I do not know exact span of missing timeline but some of my posts remaining in archive are missing from home. The oldest post seen only in archive is 07:51 PM June 06, the newest is 08:53 PM June 07: these posts are set in Tokyo time zone. Need your help...
I’m sad again.
-
Inappropriate?The same thing happened again this morning with my Recent tab entries. When I logged on, the Recent tab had one single entry, and it started building from there. All the history older than the time of my log on was gone.
I’m in need of coffee
-
Did you by any chance just follow or unfollow someone prior to that? I've noticed that this happens to me (where everything is gone except for newer entries, and those start building up) when I unfollow. -
Inappropriate?@mdy, I followed some folks, but I didn't unfollow anyone.
-
That's interesting! In my case, the behavior is consistent -- every time I unfollow someone, my Recent stream gets wiped out and starts rebuilding. I don't experience the same behavior when I follow someone. Strange! -
Inappropriate?When I login to twitter and look at my recent activity to see what everyone is up to, there is nothing there. Tweets will start to roll in, but if I go a couple days and come back to twitter, all recent activity is gone. My account is http://www.twitter.com/pbinder
Thanks for any help!
pbinder -
Hope you don't mind my asking -- Did you by any chance follow, unfollow, or block someone? I ask because in my case, my "Recent" tab consistently gets wiped out whenever I unfollow, then it starts building up again. But if I don't follow, unfollow, or block, it's fine. -
Inappropriate?In between my recent tab being wiped out, I did nothing...
-
In that case, I suggest you log a support ticket at http://twitter.com/help -
Inappropriate?i missing all my tweets from april 24th! What is up? Missing May June and most of July! twitter.com/parrfolio
-
Inappropriate?parrfolio, there's a separate thread for people who are missing 'apr to july 2008' tweets. The tweets are still in the system, but the cache needs to be refreshed, apparently.
Please see this related thread for details.
