He who has never failed somewhere, that man cannot be great. –Herman Melville, Moby Dick
Have you seen the Fail Whale in on Twitter.com? Occasionally I will catch a glimpse of the great white whale off the starboard bow of my browser.
Funny how Twitter fails regularly but no one cares.

Twitter is over capacity. Too many tweets! Please wait a moment and try again.

“Oh, lonely death on lonely life! Oh, now I feel … my topmost greatness lies in my topmost grief. Ho, ho! from all your furthest bounds, pour ye now in, ye bold billows of my whole foregone life, and top this one piled comber of my death! Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee. Sink all coffins and all hearses to one common pool! and since neither can be mine, let me then tow to pieces, while still chasing thee, though tied to thee, thou damned whale! Thus, I give up the spear!”
