I've been trying to get on a newsite, but abc.com, abcnews.com, nbc.com, msnbc.com, cbs.com, foxnews.com and boston.com are all having problems. Yahoo and MSN are up.
I can attest that boston.com is functioning in Boston. Can't say if you could reach it from another part of the country.
I wonder if the problem is just server overload, or something else.
There seems to be some major links out of action. I can't traceroute to cnn.com, for example. I *speculate* it's collateral damage from the explosions in Manhattan. That is, I sure wouldn't hang around to keep computer working in this situation.
Highly unlikely to be physical damage; it's just slashdotted because everybody with an internet connection tried it first. The San Francisco Chronicle is still working because it's early morning on the West Coast; they're sfgate.com, picture on the front page, and the AP story is at http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/news/archive/2001/09/11/nationa...
