AOL Journals: Magic Smoke

You may have noticed sporadic outages and the infamous "blue screen of death" when you tried to read or work on AOL Journals this morning. If you're reading this now, there's a strong chance that it's been fixed. We may experience some residual effects while the system recovers, but we should be all clear for now.

Stephanie Bergman, our new Journals Product Manager, has blogged more about the problem over at BamBam!

  Every time that happens, you should find some huge intern, send him over to the tech people, and have him just steady beat the hell out of him/her... while you take pictures and put them up here to assure users that the problem is being handled.

  I didn't mind when the journals were down.  It gave me a chance to catch up on my knitting and water the petunias.  I even baked cookies.  Should I send them to you?  They may taste a little funny because I wasn't sure how much kitty litter to add to the mix.

  I do not think that over in England we have the spell check facility.

  I'm seeing the spell check work fine -- is anyone else still having problems? My alerts are also in shape ...
