I mean, did someone important die?

Why I think that? Well, I didn't have time to read the LJ f-list this morning and when I tried to catch up now LJ was down. Yeah, not a big problem, I'll live. But then I went on twitter to bitch about it when I wanted to reply to friends bitching about it too Twitter went down too. And since I know how crazy things went when Michael Jackson died I do wonder what the reason for this problem could be.

Maybe I should switch on the news? Or maybe I should just get a book and an iced coffee and spend my unexpected free time in the garden. Yes, that sounds better.


Mmmh, I was just thinking, maybe Twitter was crashed by annoyed LJers, because, isn't it around the time when people in the USA, Canada, South America ... check their f-lists before going to work?


ETA: The problems are obviously caused by DoS attacks on the servers of several big social networking sites ... I wonder who could be interrested in these sites going down. I might have a few ideas and they don't involve bored teenagers.
