Msn Messenger Service Down!

Shows you how incompetent Microsoft is

.
If you realised, the entire messenger service was down for about 15-30mins, or more.

No one could sign in for some reason. I just had to make this announcement, so don't reply saying "The purpose of this post?".

Did anyone else suffer from the same problem? At about 1.45pm to 2.15 AWST (Aus), messenger service was down even though service status says it is up and runing.

First time in about the last 4-5yrs since I started using messenger that the srvice actually went down and not one person could sign in.

Worth a topic.

Half hour? Pfft! Anyone remember when AOL's entire internet service went down for, like, a day? I was using the free 1000 hours I got in the mail at the time... a dark period in my internet life.
