News: Amazon.com is down

For those of you not aware, currently, at 2:20 pm est, Amazon.com, great book and merchandise site that I usually buy all my holiday gifts from is down.  Want proof?  Either go there, or enjoy this pretty image.

Let’s be honest, a lot of people are getting fired over this right as we speak.  And interestingly, Amazon UK is up and running.  Is this a foreshadowing of current market trends?

More stuff will be posted over the weekend, or at least I’ll try to.
