Just as I was settling in for yet another lunch at the desk, I started to get ready for the MacWorld Keynote speech. I go to open Twitter as 1 of 3 sites I’ll be refreshing, only to find it’s down. MHerzberger just told me Ustream.tv is down too.
So on one hand, we have 2 popular sites that are becoming information stations for everyone interested, on the other hand we have 2 websites who aren’t properly gauging their audience and its needs.
I don’t know whether to feel angry that I can’t get my info or excited that so many people are starting to utilize these sites.
Guess I’ll stick to HTML-refresh at Engadget for yet another year. Maybe next year, Web 2.0.
EDIT — Engadget is down as well now. Stay alive macrumorslive.com, you’re my only hope!!!!!
I am at http://www.macworld.com/article/131486/2008/01/liveupdate.html.
It was painful but we all survived LOL!
I was out to lunch, had it on macrumorslive on the Iphone, it was great, got home and everyhting else was down including stock!!! Ouch!
