LiveJournal Servers Go Down

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the only-mostly-dead dept.

Wind writes "According to any journal hosted off of LiveJournal.com, the LiveJournal data center Internap has suffered a critical power failure, leaving all of LiveJournal and its content temporarily offline and requiring the revival of 100+ servers. Perhaps Six Apart wasn't quite prepared for the responsibilities of a website of this size? Updated information is posted here."

    If there's a god, the servers will never come back up and the internet will be forever purged of all that inane bullshit.

    Seriously... I'd almost rather have purvasive child pornography websites and endless reruns of the taliban beheading american soldiers than come across one more god damned livejournal.

    Didn't they see the option in the BIOS clearly marked as "Restart after power failure"? You just can't get the staff these days! * rolls eyes *

    When we make up new words, they sound so fucking retarded, like blog. Say it out loud. Tell me you don't feel like you just lost 100 IQ points.

    This is about livejournal remember, it's not like it's a blog site where your IQ is expected to increase ;)
