Also noticed that the Status page linked from the logged out https://twitter.com page has been expired since Aug 29.

Yeah, this is why spamming your general status page with lots of information is a bad idea. I have no idea what's going on there. At first glance it looks like half their services are having issues, which makes me think it always looks like that, which means it tells me nothing without digging into the detailed issues.

I created pretty much the same thing about two weeks ago, although I think your library looks much nicer (I'm just getting into Go).
