God. Is it like a new trend or something - servers going down!?

I was checking out Technorati for interesting entries and caught a glimpse of today's popular keywords which happened to have "amazon down" on the top charts.

According to CenterNetworks, an attempt to access Amazon lead to this page:

There's more...

The "funny":

That's right, big arse Amazon seems to wanna be hip and trendy so they took the service down, or should I say unavailable. We've all seen what Twitter can do with some downtime and other large Internet services are feeling left out. YouTube for example had an outage recently to raise their hip level.

We are considering taking CN down later today because heck, we are the coolest tech blog out there today!

The "serious":

On a serious note, where's Amazon's status reporting service? How much income is being lost each minute they are down? It does look like Amazon's S3 is up based on files loading here on CN.

Honestly, I didn't really notice that it went down. But hey, it must be true to hit the top charts right?

Anyhow.

I was gonna write this like an hour or so earlier, but unexpectedly, my blog suddenly went down too!

Guess my blog, like Amazon, decided to join the crowd and go on a strike too? (God, please no.)

Having any problems on your side?
