Powerade cap code for my coke rewards…no, the next part did not say crackers. haha :)
So this started with searching for Google Chrome for Linux and I found that Google is blocking their own sites (well, at least searching for “google” does it “google blog” doesn’t)? I tried to get to the security contact page but I am getting 502 errors; anyone else getting this error? Its quite funny seeing google blocks its homepage, I have other pirctures but go see for yourself!

UPDATE: Some news places reporting the incident

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/01/31/AR2009013100798.html
and various other blogs.
They are reporting that it only lasted about 15 minutes, some say 30; I think the whole thing lasted that long but I think it took a while for some stuff to update as I could get the error produced for a bit longer - and no, it wasn’t cached stuff on my side.
Here’s a cropped version of the picture ^_^

This near broke my heart. haha, I love the way Pownce was set up, it was clean, and easy to use. VOX is nice as well though :) Pownce will be missed. I suppose this is one less site to keep updated though. I lose count of how many social network sites have gone down; I guess the bubble has burst — even my beloved Facebook is starting to get crowded and slowing down.
I am currently awaiting YooHoo http://yoohoo.com/ the screenshots are looking good so far. I am really excited about it :)
A new one, http://www.noobindex.com/ got started, I saw an advertisment for it on Facebook so I checked it out, it was working great but I think the main man working on it doesn’t have to time anymore. If you Google it, it looks like he is trying to sell it. Maybe one day it will be better. haha
