Amazon's EC2 Servers Go Down Again

Are you trying to use the web right now? Just stop. It’s largely broken.

As indicated by about 20 tips in the last few minutes and pretty much all of Twitter, Amazon’s EC2 service appears to be totally down. That means services like Reddit, Heroku, Foursquare, Instagram, Fab, Quora, and many, many others are down.
2nd time in 4 months for Amazon's servers.

One of the realities of the inevitable upcoming cloud computing era-sometimes, stuff just might stop working for a while.
