More MySpace woes
Posted in Tech by Dan at 10:58 pm

Seems that MySpace, after it’s six hour outage yesterday is having more trouble today. The site seems completely unresponsive flustering thousands of users.
However, I do like their sense of humor. Might as well play the PacMan game while MySpace feeds the gerbils who power their servers.

hey tom is the myspace back on…its noww 8:55 pst.
Dan, don’t hide from the fact that you maintain a secret MySpace profile ;) Actually I’m kidding. Dan and I would rather stare at paint drying on walls. I thought something was awry. The internet seemed to be a little quieter over the past day. I guess the constant sound of MySpace users clicking refresh really does have an impact on the world.
update the status report!!!!!!!!!
how much longer is it gonna take
Hey Tom it’s 9:35 PM and still no MySpace!!
its 11:30 not 7:40
Well my inbox exploded with people going “OMG, MySpace is dead” – Figured it was worth a post.
BBL, watching paint dry.
hey i miss myspace it keeps the world from getting angry with war discrimination its our space 2 gether united as 1 so lets keep myspace going bring it back its keeps us from doing crazy things!
This is really friggin creepy. I dont like it one bit! Whats really going on?
i guess the $580 million from rupert murdoch wasn’t enough to buy surge protectors, huh?
What’s really going on is the heat in Cali where the server farms are located suffered damage. I believe Media Temple servers – which rarely go down – suffered from similar issues earlier today.
What the heck?I need my myspace,I love chatting to friends.And hooking up with guys at my school who otherwise wouldn’t give me the time of day. So pleeeeez fix it…..I NEED TO UPLOAD MY NEW PICS!
Plz Tom fix myspace p.s. (i’m board) aWWW
But yea it’z f*ck’n hot in Cali (112) in the valley
Oh darn. Guess the children have to go outside and play now.
The influx of people that can’t understand that complaining here will not affect the situation is astounding.
I am the only person, in my group of friends, to not have a MySpace profile.
I don’t have one, because I see how much time they lose while doing absolutely nothing when logged on.
It’s actually a little sad.
It has been back today, I think it came back sometime late yesterday or early today
And I don’t know where the severs are, but I know where the MySpace offices are, they are near Marina Del Ray, one mile north of LAX, I used to pass the building they are in every day going to my college last year, but I since moved.
Saturday was the hottest day of the year in Los Angeles, even Downtown Los Angeles was at 99F, almost triple digits, which is a record for Downtown. The Heat caused power outages all over the county because of so many people running air conditioners. I myself did not experience a power outage yet this summer, even tough I live just a little north of where MySpace is so I figured their servers are not that far from me.
But oh well.
Alex don’t remind me…..the valley ain’t any cooler…
