YouTube is down (or close to it), rendering little more than plain HTML text. Either they’re having technical difficulties or someone posted the funniest video ever made.

Seems to be back up. That doesn’t seem like something they would let be down for long…

Yep, it’s been back since sometime after lunch. It was down for at least the half hour I was checking earlier and probably longer. For a site that receives as many hits as YouTube, that’s a long downtime. Out of curiosity, I’m hoping there will be a news release in the couple days. It’s always interesting to hear what makes a large service like this tick and the problems involved.
