Random thought:

Many company and developer blogs? Hosted on completely different technology from their main web sites. Maybe not even hosted on their servers, but instead with a service - like this one.

Maybe we can avoid the increasingly stale snark about <web technology mentioned in blog post> not working so well when a blog post goes down under heavy load.

Doubly so when it's a freakin' iPad app, not a web-app being talked about.

tumblr :/

Interesting... Just a heads up if anyone cares: We had at least one tumblr submission yesterday, too, that had trouble. Two days in a row might be a larger red flag for tumblr or tumblr users.

Twitter has been having this sort of problem since always. Users don't seem to care about a little downtime.

Hacker News itself has hiccoughs, too, but here we are.
