Amazon is down!!

Amazon.com has been for some time now. The error message: Http/1.1 Service Unavailable.

This is BIG news!! I always believed Amazon is THE company when it comes to building distributed, fault tolerant systems. A few minutes down time is acceptable. But, 2 hours down time is not. Amazon has the burden of setting an example for people who look upto it. Maybe thats no fair...but then... Welcome to the real world ;) With power comes responsibility.
