Sad news is just coming in now of a shooting in Binghamton in the US.. several dead and injured.

Of course it immediately became a very hot topic on Twitter.

You can see the effect it appears to have had on twitter systems with a sudden big increase in page load times to the point of being basically down now to all but the most patient..

Hopefully they’ll throw in some more computing power or otherwise solve the load issues soon. You can follow twitter server up/downtime here..
