    Any kind of hardware error would only affect one localized region or one set of applications.

    That leaves either configuration error or 3\/1L h4X0R3RZ.

    98% of the time, it's a configuration error. Hackers are just lazy. :p

    Usually, symptoms like this mean that someone made a really simple and easy routing change...

    The fact that the DNS TTL has been lowered, however, points to a DNS issue.

    SHawn-

    Do you think I can get a deal on the empty ad space at the top of the forum now. I have a nice banner I could put there. ;)

    Looks like SBC, a tier one (which happens to be California's biggest provider) is down (or in the process of going down):

    www.internetpulse.net

    Although doesn't really explain it since Google's data centers are not bound to any physical region or provider.

    I don't think it is related, or at least causing the issues, as when google first went down, SBC and all the other Tier1's were still up. ( checking on internet pulse was one of the 1st things I did )

    You weren't at the PHP Users Group meeting tonight? They were talking about Smarty. I've used it, but was still thinking of going. Too bad it's on a Thursday :)

    Even if it is history by the time it reaches the TV screens, this is still a big stock-price-killing story.

    Google.be is still up and ads are still showing on my .be sites.
    Can't log into adsense though.

    My site is taking forever to load now and with all the sites running AS, G might have just killed the internet.

    I just switched a couple of my larger sites from AdSense to YPN.

    Anyone else going to do that -- at least until Google is stable-ish again?
