I'm sure Ryan wasn't personally responsible, nor were any of the blogging staff, but this is a high-traffic, very popular website. You'd think they'd be ready for this kind of spike in traffic?

I kept coming back over and over throughout the keynote to see if things improved, which they clearly did not.

Ah well, I really hope the infrastructure staff learns a lesson or 5 from this.]]>Jan 15th 2008 2:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/Jan 15th 2008 4:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/Jan 15th 2008 4:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/Jan 16th 2008 3:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/Jan 16th 2008 10:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/Jan 15th 2008 2:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/http://www.engadget.com/2008/01/15/yeah-about-those-server-problems/

I think Engadget had the best coverage, but I was going to CNET to get frequent updates, but then getting more pictures and details whenever Engadget came up.
