Flickourd out: Next time your site goes down, have a colouring contest. They apologise, however. Sir Stewart Butterfield explains the outage.
Update: Later in the evening, the site is back up. What’s more, there are a gazillion entries in the contest. Lesson to marketers: I’m not exactly sure what the lesson is, but I think it’s something about turning lemons into lemonade and always having crayons handy for when the kids get restless.
