Is your Internet experience worse since the asian earthquake ?
Sunday, December 31, 2006 by Fourth Letter | Discussion: Internet
Just thought I'd post this and see if anyone else has noticed the various missing web sites and general slow down since the undersea earthquake in Tawian.
I'm based in Edinburgh,Scotland and was surprised that it affected us ! just goes to show how much of the worlds web storage is in the far east.

Haven't noticed anything here in Norway. (But I haven't been using the internet much the last week as my parents are on ISDN...)

I'm in Egypt. We wouldn't notice anyway because our feed is so erratic.

Seems fine here in Florida
Yeah, me too. I've been enjoying the holidays.......since the Media only reports/exaggerates the BAD news, I been avoiding it.
Hope it wasn't too bad for them.

I don't watch the news at all, so if it isn't on one of the sites I visit, I don't know about it. I'm sorry they had one. I hope they can recover quickly. Here in NC things seem to be fine.

Michigan here....no slow downs here. Are the slowdowns noticable in specific sites or domains you regularly visit, or are others in your area voiced similar problems?
