I was going to write a post about the reading list that I’m putting together. But LibraryThing, where I’m keeping that list, was down when I stopped by this morning:
Rampaging elephants? Peanuts? Alright, it made me chuckle. As an added bonus, it’s more interesting and somehow less cryptic than “HTTP 404: File not found.” (Could have done without the word error twice in the same sentence though.)
*insert lightbulb image here*
Hey, I’ve just discovered a surefire web 2.0 litmus test!
Answer these questions: 1) is the site/service often down? 2) is the error msg trying to tell you this in a funny or unusual way? If you answered “yes” to both of these questions, then you are dealing with web 2.0!
