Twitter: No more outbound texts for Canada | The Social – CNET News.

This can’t be good. Just a few months after restricting its U.K.-based text-messaging number due to cost issues, Twitter has done the same for Canada.

The microblogging service has cut outbound SMS messages for the folks up north, citing "unexpected changes in our billing." Costs had been doubling for a few months.

This explains why I have not been receiving updates from John Cleese, Shaq, ECCW Pro-Wrestling, etc. and why folks have not commented back on my witty tweets.

HEY TWITTER! Just let Facebook buy you and be done with it. Don’t go broke like the dotcoms in the early part of this decade. Trust me, that sucks.
