New Dropbox Homepage

Instead of a home page I want to see a status page with actual updates that happen when an outage occurs. Dropbox has the worst response time of any host I know, and their reactions are lethargic at best. When my contract is up I'm moving to something else.

I know they're not quick to update it, but they do run a status page: http://status.dropbox.com/

And a twitter: https://twitter.com/DropboxOps

have you considered that maybe when dropbox SREs get paged they get busy fixing the site, not updating the status page?

It takes 10 seconds to tweet "Experiencing and issue" and then another 10 seconds to explain why after they figure it out. It's not rocket science.
