I tried one of those "Is This Site Down?" websites earlier and they couldn't connect either. In fact, just now, I tried a different site and they also say it's down. So, it's not just us.
As was said, I'm hopeful they're working on it and that's the reason it's down.
Google is still listing site pages and that's a good sign, at least for the moment. But, one does wonder how much more of this Google (and other search engines), along with the membership will take before things turn truly ugly.
In short, I continue to hold to the idea (or is that "hope") there is some kind of 'plan' in play.
