I was waiting for someone to bring this up, but it didn't happen. The "19 hour" outage of AOL was attributed to a new network operating system update, by at least one media story I read. I'm curious is there're any interesting lessons from this for the rest of us?
Perhaps: Always make sure you have that "UnInstall" option available to you? =-) I paused for a moment and considered how interesting it is that a problem with an online service is now headline news... on the same day NASA announced there is(was) probably other life in the universe. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
