LJ is sorta back
Jul. 27th, 2011 12:50 pmI haven't been able to access LiveJournal since sunday night.
I was a little surprised to see lots of posts all week, and no mention of an outage. It's a DDOS attack. I didn't think it was, since it looked different than usual. Now I'm guessing that my IP was being blocked by the LJ servers, in an attempt to find the attacking computers.
Fortunately, there are only 19 new entries on my friends page, so it won't take much to catch up. The outage must have only affected about half of you, since that's only about half the number of entries I'd mornally have in that time. LJ has been dead enough already. I hope this didn't scare away more of you.
