LJ just went down for me (http://downforeveryoneorjustme.com/livejournal.com = and others) but the status page still says LiveJournal may be unresponsive or slow to load due to database problems we're experiencing. Our Operations staff is working to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. Please see this entry in LJ_Maintenance for additional details. 2:30 am GMT (Wednesday, April 7)
I'm just glad for the Down for everyone site. *sigh*
It's time that they fix the issue like they thought they would.
