What seems to be the official whatsapp status on twitter is silent: https://mobile.twitter.com/wa_status

Their subtitle "We are working very hard to make this twitter account irrelevant." is quite apropriate if they don't use it (;

Just kidding, I love Whatsapp and just saw the talk on Startup School and loved it.

Down in Argentina. I wonder if they lost their credentials to update this account: https://twitter.com/wa_status updated 2014. lol

Messages are circulating on social media that it has something to do with a datacenter fire. I assume this is not the case?
