This is the wrong time of year to be having problems on a site like that.

At least we still have DU!

but still getting the 503 on the home page.

I'm an occasional lurker here and have never posted before, but I finally signed up for an account because the Daily Kos downtime since the storm has been giving me withdrawals! Funny, cuz I don't spend that much time there except for right before an election.

I actually went to freeperville to see if they were chortling about taking it down-- then I came to my senses and backed away... Kos has to have some sort of co-location so I imagine it's an actual site/DB issue rather than a server issue. -- The main page seems to come and go but anything else is giving 503 errors. I am sure M. will get some news up about it at some point.
