Youtube down on July 14

Its not very often that youtube goes down, but today is one of those days.

The day started off with me trying to upload a video that was edited last night. My kids were asleep this morning, and nobody in the house was using the internet, so the morning is the best time to upload videos.

The video was uploaded – but there was a message that youtube was in “read mode only”, and that I would not be able to add a title or description until youtube went to write mode. Ok, no big deal.

The video was uploaded, but 2 hours later it was still encoding. So it was deleted and uploaded again.

This time, all of the videos on youtube gave a 502 internal server error.

But as I’am typing this message, youtube has came back online – lets just hope everything is fixed.
