    I have seen yahoo answers down in past as well but it was for 2-3 hours only. Today it have already took nearly 12 hours and is still down. I am sure it wont take more then their promised time.

    Image what will happen if their engineers make a mess while maintenance work and that mess make it worse :p

    I just observed that even their blog is closed.
    Yahoo Answers Site says : Read more at the Yahoo! Answers Blog
    And yanswersblog.com/ Says : 500 Internal Server Error
    Thats really funny :)

    Maybe it's a sign that shows that Google truly is taking over the world.

    Hey..
    yahoo answers was doing maintenance changes, not any other changes..

    so I think we should not expect any changes..
