Hi,

In Geek talk:
"504 Gateway Timeout: The server was acting as a gateway or proxy and did not receive a timely response from the upstream server"

In English:
It just means the connection is taking too long, and failing. Could be something as simple as a poor wifi/3g connection on your phone. Or maybe one of the twitter servers is being overworked.

Hope this helped Smile
