Obviously others with this problem can’t comment. I can only post via 3G cellular (and by asking someone else to post these details for me).

Also affects Twitter.com

Probably some sort of technical problem. I am getting a few timeouts in my tracert, so it’s possible somebody’s router is not responding.
