While the official sites is still down, Whiskey Media had came back online for the live-stream and the Bracket-tournament that they were doing on Yesterday's TNT pitting against the people at Whiskey Media. I like how they decided to fully live-stream the whole day, yesterday regarding this issue with Amazon servers and entertained us with Tested and their podcast and reviews on gadgets to Giantbomb doing their Mortal Kombat thing. 

Here's what they said with what's been going on with the Amazon servers and such:

 Around 1AM PDT on Thursday, our network of sites went down due to a large failure at the Northern Virginia data center of Amazon, where its Elastic Block Storage (EBS) product is held. Being a pretty popular provider of cloud-based storage, the shutdown also took down several other high-profile websites, including Reddit, Foursquare, and Quora.
Although it would be easy to directly pass the buck onto Amazon for our downtime, we've been extremely happy with them over the years and realize things like this happen from time to time. The Whiskey Media "Top Men" take pride in our architecture and our ability to provide a stable environment for you to goof off with on the Internet.
