On the day that came to be known as Black Friday software development came to a screeching halt all over the world. Disruption of industry and changing of the world through extensible context aware computing also took a big hit today. There are reports of window jumpers in San Francisco and Austin, Texas. We'll keep you updated on the latest from this developing story.

Indeed it is: http://isup.me/stackoverflow.com

It's surprising how much this hurts my productivity. And as great as archive.org is, it's not a very good substitute in this case[0], as most questions aren't archived.

Stack Overflow or GitHub's outage?

Is it really? Noticed from this HN item, went to check...and it seems up. From the timestamps on front page, a 7-minute outage looks likely.
