Excerpt from Music or the Man?

Quote by Calgary Herald
Jackson&;s artistic bequest is at once dazzling and beyond reproach. From his self-styled iconography-set off by Jackson&;s death caused microblogging site Twitter to crash, Google to think it was under hacker attack, and AOL&;s instant messaging service to collapse, with the company calling it "a seminal moment in Internet history."

[edit]With thanks to , I am informed livejournal also crashed on that day.

Press ALT+F4 it's fun!

lol, livejournal crashed too. horrible day for the internet D:

theres this super popular celebrity gossip-ish community on livejournal that just completely exploded when anna nicole smith died. i guess there were so many people making comments that it literally surpassed the capacity for one community that the livejounal staff didnt even know existed.

when i found out michael jackson died, i probably would have bet all the money i have that it exploded again. and sure enough it did. as well as making the entire site barely functional. then shutting down completely D:

So did I, but I doubt it was because of the sites crashing. The only LJ I look at was down as well, but I was on Neopets mostly.
