I think as dependence on web services increase there's also higher expectations about availability. You have giant services like Twitter, Facebook, and Google that are almost never down and start to expect that of other companies

Github is Microsoft. I expect the same from them as I do Google.
So, funny second hand story. Google’s accountants were using third party software hosted on GAE. They bitched to the third part about how the downtime of the software was unacceptable. The third party pointed out that each instance mentioned was a documented GAE outage.
After some internal discussions, the accountants apologized.
Google isn’t exactly a shining star.

Whenever GitHub disappoints me, I just remind myself how much better it is then Perforce.
