Digg, LinkedIn, TechCrunch Inaccessibility
I like this definition of inaccessability from the Wordweb dictionary:
The quality of not being unavailable when needed
Over the past week or two, I have noticed several of my favorite social sites I routinely visit not “not being unavailable when needed.” To put it plainly, I had difficulties accessing Digg, LinkedIn and TechCrunch for a brief time. I know what you’re thinking. It’s my fault. I should contact my ISP. However, the errors appear to be related to the sites themselves. I am not going to try and analyze them and speculate as to the cause, but I am willing to bet they were all related to traffic spikes. It’s a reminder of how important web hosting and network connectivity is for all of us site owners.

I got a few db connection errors w/ GoDaddy over the past week. By the time I got my tech support email off the connection had returned, of course.
