FYI there's a great Chrome extension that hides all the working services (green checks) on the AWS status page so you can quickly see what's down.

Yeah I wrote this during the last extended outages - had some downtime since, well, I couldn't interact with the api :P .

Well their status page is down too: https://status.aws.amazon.com/

Edit: http(s) was at fault (no SSL cert?)

Yes no HTTPS.
