		</div><p>Twitter has confirmed a technical problem that affected access to the site for more than six hours has now been resolved.<br />
The social media site posted an update to its status page, which read: “The intermittent issue affecting some users between 00:40 to 06:50 PST (Pacific Standard Time) has now been resolved.<br />
“The issue was related to an internal code change. We reverted the change, which fixed the issue. Thank you for your patience.”</p>
<p>A tweet from the site’s support account also confirmed the fix.<br />
Users of the social media platform began reporting blackouts at around 8.30am on Tuesday, with Twitter timelines then sporadically reappearing for some users on mobile apps just before 11am.</p>
<p>However, the site regularly dropped back offline, with images and videos failing to load at all for many during this time.<br />
The issue was the longest-lasting in the micro-blogging site’s almost 10-year history.</p>
<p>The site’s client apps, including Tweetdeck, were also prone to constant interruptions in service throughout the day.</p>
<p>Though short, regular blackouts were common in the early days of the site – an Apple live event caused it to crash under the weight of traffic in 2008 &#8211; extended outages have become less frequent in recent years, with the last major drop in service occurring in 2014 when the site was down for around 45 minutes.</p>
<p>Social media expert Warren Knight said the blackout would not help Twitter’s struggling public image, but that the firm should have no problem bouncing back.</p>
<p>“Any downtime for a technology brand is negative, and as quick we complain we quickly forget and go back to our daily habits,” he said.</p>
<p>“It’s a short-term outage that only makes Twitter more human.”<br />
More than half of those who reported an issue did so concerning the website, but users of the iOS and Android mobile apps also reported problems.</p>
