Seriously, IBM. A week before Lotusphere...

I wanted to verify some track names from the Lotusphere website, so I went to http://www.Lotusphere.com today.

Seriously, IBM? I check http://www.ibm.com/lotusphere as well. Generates a different URL, but the same problem. Well, at least www-01.ibm.com/software/collaboration/events/connect/ works for IBM Connect 2012, and from there you can get to http://www-01.ibm.com/software/lotus/events/conference/ which does actually work for Lotusphere 2012. Update - that doesn't work either anymore.  I'm sure anybody looking for Lotusphere a week before the conference won't mind.

Unfortunately there are several IBM.com and internal ibm systems affected by an outage this morning. I don't have details but I can tell you this website is not the only thing down at the moment.

Ah, the cloud. I guess it's raining.

But Darren, it's not raining everywhere.

Thanks, Ed. All appears to be working again now.
