    No it wasn't.

    You probably go to websites via Google....and Google was down for a few minutes.

    You could consider using another search engine....

    UPC was very very slow there for the last 25 minutes as well, thought it was going to die.

    Eircom was down and my 3G wasn't working either. I'm with 3. Did something big happen.
    Is this the big one? The apocalypse?

    Different providers probably due to Eircom just reselling their 'service' to everyone

    There's nothing quite like the feeling of dread when it stops working.
