Hey everybody -
This is a result of some of the caching changes we made during last night's maintenance window. While those changes have made the service more stable over all, there have been some unintended effects.
We're aware of the problem and are working through it. It may take a bit to resolve but we are on it.

I've got good news. We've caught up with this issue and we're currently backfilling the timelines. This will take a few hours but once things are caught up, we should be back to delivering all updates in a timely fashion. Also, we will have successfully moved to the new memcaching scheme—which will make Twitter better, despite the bumpy road we took to get there.
I’m thankful

Colin had a solution that worked for me: http://cdevroe.com/notes/twitter-sort...
How to fix your Twitter cache
It is really simple. Follow someone you are not already following. And then un-follow them. Refresh your Twitter page and you’re all set. Your cache has now been restored.
I’m happy

Seems like reverting the live version back to the previous version before the upgrades would be a better temporary solution, especially since it's already been over 24 hours since the issue began. Then the cache updates and fixes could be worked out on some dev/testing install before taking live again.
How useful is twitter if its primary utility--sending and receiving updates to/from your network and friends--isn't functioning?
I’m hoping the issue is resolved soon. We are all feeling lonely with it being so quiet.

Inappropriate?These problems are being caused due to the way we cache information. When you change your follow/following relationship that forces the service to rebuild the cached data which temporarily fixes the problem. However, this fix is not long-lasting and will ultimately revert to the broken behavior.
We've been making changes throughout the day but it's still an ongoing issue for us. -

Inappropriate?Wow. I wrote a blog post, went to bed, and now the number of people on this thread has doubled. Thanks, twitter, for at least going public with the issue. You can't hide a three day outage. The best thing to do is put your hand up, admit you broke it, and get on with things. You've made a big step in that direction.
I’m not happy yet, but I'm glad twitter are making an effort

Inappropriate?Woah, the timeline is all effed up now! Doc Brown, help! I am so confused. I do not know what Twitter was or what prayin' is. Tommy...TOMMY?
I tell you what good came out of this. We all learned how much we love each other and how much we miss each other in our little Twitterverse. I miss @MouseWords and "maybe" @Tindle, but not really. lol
We also all learned how effective getsatisfaction.com can be in bringing a problem pubic and getting some action. Okay, I know it's public. I'm not stupid. But I still want some pubic action.
Sincere thanks to @biz, @jack and @ev who I tease on a regular basis. But who is this Goldfinger dude and why is Twitter feeding him to the lions?
Catch up soon...

Inappropriate?Sorry. Don't think this is fixed. Could be me but one minute saw all my Tweets and next minute went back to 10 hours old with all recent ones gone. US based people no Tweets at all. Why a geographic based issue? Tried following/unfollowing. That worked yesterday but now has no effect.
I’m confused

@biz mentioned above that they are "back filling the timelines" -- which to me means they're publishing all the tweets that we hadn't seen over the weekend. That explains why they're old. Once they've finished backfilling, things will have caught up with the present once again. 8-) As to geography, I'm not sure, but my guess is that you were seeing less US-based users right then because the tweets that were being back-filled or posted were sent hours earlier -- when people were still sleeping in the US.

Uum...what I could not figure is why the timeline was repaired and then went away again as if 'my cache' was corrupted again having tried to be repaired. Since then I have signed on and off and get different timelines each time. The last twice I have got Tweets globally and had the same timeline. What is strange is the 'yo-yoing'. As if it rebuilds but keeps hitting a faulty bit and jumps. What is amazing is that a few weeks ago I was not even a user and now I am actually concerned I cannot see the people I am following. I have become a cyber-stalker!

I noticed the same behavior earlier -- new tweets were intermittently getting interspersed with older ones (though I must admit I didn't try logging out and logging back in). As of now, my Twitter "Recent" stream has stabilized somewhat, and I only see new tweets coming in. If you continue to experience this problem after Twitter announces the successful completion of the 'backfill' process, my suggestion is that you start a new thread here in GetSatisfaction to raise the issue. [ As to being a self-professed 'cyberstalker,' I can totally relate to that! ]

Inappropriate?I am new to this site and have no idea what you are talking about.What is a Tweet?? I feel like I have been sleeping for the last ten years and don't know what is going on in the world. What are you talking about?? TWEET??I am confused. But I live in a state of confusion. Actually I live in the state of Iowa, so that might be part of my problem. Seriously what is a tweet and why aren't you posting them anymore. If you answer this I have no way of knowing where to find the answer so I don't know what to tell you. I do like this site. I enjoy Zappo. The first time I ordered from Zappos I ordered six pairs of shoes and before I received them I had a brain aneurysm and was in Mayo in Rochester MN for 9 weeks. When I came home there was a stack of boxes from Zappos for me. It was the best of life, I get home from dealing with an aneurysm and walk in the house and find several boxes of new shoes. The aneurysm was a bummer but getting home to see those boxes from zappo was wonderful. Oh, I am ok. I didn't lose my mind or anything so I am fully aware of what I am doing. It could have been a lot worse. The doctors gave my family the news that I had a 5% chance of living. I think they were all fighting over the new car I just purchased. But I have all boys so the shoes did not have names written on them as to who would be getting which pair.
Well if you could explain this tweets to me I would appreciate it very much.
Thank you
