Twitter crashes after being overloaded with New Year messages

London, Jan 1 (ANI): Micro blogging site Twitter crashed yesterday after being overloaded with New Year messages.

In Britain the site crashed at about 3pm local time and was out of action for more than an hour.

It coincided with midnight celebrations in Japan when revellers were sending a record 16,197 tweets per second.

The site started working after some time, but then stopped on several other occasions, prompting speculation that it was being hit by the arrival of New Year in different parts of the world, The Daily Mail reports.

Users attempting to Tweet their New Year's Eve thoughts and wishes to friends met with the message 'Twitter is over capacity. Please wait a moment and try again.'

One user tweeted, "It's amazing how three words can ruin my day! Twitter over capacity."

Another joked, "Twitter's New Year resolution needs to be I will never go over capacity." (ANI)
