So. Wonder what it is?

LJ has been down since first thing this morning- least for me, and for any of a dozen friends' pages I've checked.

The offsite status page at http://status.livejournal.org/ offers no clue, other than this:

We are currently addressing site loading issues. Please stand by and we'll be back soon!

Status Updated: 7:47 am GMT (Monday, July 25)

Google News offers any number of stories in response to a "LiveJournal DDOS" search string. Unfortunately, every single one of them is in Cryllic.

Only other thing I can think of is that an infinite number of monkeys all got home simultaneously from ComiCon and broke the thing by accident.

Somehow, I've gotten a few comments on entries from as late as last night. Yet nobody on either F or + is talking about it.

It will really, monumentally SUCK if I have to pack up and get out of here, but when the entire English-speaking universe can't seem to manage even a collective yawn when this site goes blank for half a day, I begin to wonder how long this patient has got to live.

Heh, and we'll see how that crossposting goes too, huh.

Ahhhhh, that'll explain why I couldn't get my flist to load earlier then!

Yawell. Moments after I posted this, the ljstatus message changed to a "still working on it." That was close to 10 hours ago. Not happy about how this seems to be going.
