Anyone having problems getting YouTube this morning?
YouTube ^

Posted on 05/03/2008 5:37:07 AM PDT by SilvieWaldorfMD

Cannot get YouTube at all here in my computer. I have Comcast Hi-Speed Internet here in Southern Maryland. Every other page downloads properly. I have my YouTube in my "Favorites", so I have not been misspelling it. Comcast says it's a problem with YouTube.

What gives? Are we in the USA or in Pyongyang?

Interesting you would ask. I was watching some Jimmy Durante. “Inka Dinka Doo” played fine. Then “Start Off Each Day With a Song” would not load.

YouTube is working alright for me, but many videos seem to stream very slowly.

Other video sharing sites work without any problem, though.

I just checked again, 5 minutes since the last time, and it is now dead for me too. Not even a ‘We are performing site maintenance/ will be back in a while’ message.

There IS such a thing as “unplanned outage.”

I'm having problems with Youtube too. It could be a replay of the Pakistan Youtube blocking incident causing a global outage.

Bush's fault. He sent evil Cheney to hack the server.
