A widespread outage in video-conferencing app Zoom prompted a slew of comments on social media on Monday as week-starter meetings, classes and tests got postponed to other times and days. Downdetector, a website that keeps track of outages on the internet has revealed that users in Australia, India, Pakistan and other parts of the world were struggling to log into Zoom sessions, start conferences and join meetings which had already started. The video-conferencing app confirmed the problem on Twitter and told users that it is investigating and fixing the glitches. Meanwhile, all hell broke loose on Twitter as Zoom users began sharing their reactions to the outage. Some were elated to have missed the Monday meetings and classes, others were upset that they had to wait still longer to get their test results.
