Outages, outages

On Tuesday and Wednesday Yahoo experienced a mail outage. I experienced the same thing on Sunday, with server timeouts throughout the day (inevitably in the end I discovered I didn’t have any new mail, anyway). Today MySpace is having similar problems, though at least they’ve provided us with a game of Pacman in the meantime:

Is there a pattern? Is it linked to the power outages in New York? (Probably not, but it’s fun to speculate.)

    Yeah, I couldn’t log into yahoo mail last night, was wondering if it was something in my PC or their problem as other web sites worked fine. Today from work its ok.
    Annoying but for a free service can’t complain too much. I noticed some person complained as they used it for work - shows you why these things need to be seperated and you pay for email services if you are a company.
