Tweetdeck down because of bugs
Twitter has taken Tweetdeck offline after an apparent bug has possibly given some Tweetdeck users access to others’ accounts.
A Tweetdeck user in Australia, Geoff Evanson, says he discovered today he was somehow able to access hundreds of other accounts through Tweetdeck. Here is an email he sent us:
“I’m a tweetdeck user. A bug has given me access to hundreds of twitter and facebooks account through tweetdeck. I didn’t do anything special to make this happen. I just logged in one day, the account was was slower than normal, and I could post from many more accounts.”

In case anybody has been wondering why they couldn't log in
