Massive Internet outage...
 

... make that 'Massive Internet Services outage'

This is really weird.
All of the following sites and services went down across the web for various times:

Google
Amazon Cloud services
PSN
FourSquare
Reddit
Giant bomb etc.

Something seemed to have happened on the web, and I don't think they have the full picture.
Do we know if anything similar happened with porn services?

Gremlins!

spike in solar activity...

Always something broken-lagging some place and something important getting attacked screwing up things all over... if your route just happens to be crossing paths with something having issues, you're screwed until the route gods release you.

oh no someone broke the internets

Bush weather machine messing it up? oh wait, make that Obama's weather machine

Sounds to me like the super secret monitoring system to help with the war on drugs, no wait I mean terror, no wait I mean freedom was not properly tested before it went live.

You are all free to think for yourselves for a few more hours while we work out the glitches.

The elastic in ec2 must have snapped.
