PSA: Dropbox is down, uploads not working (update: it’s back)

PSA Dropbox is down for some

Dropbox is down -- break out the FTP client. According to readers and Twitter, the service has been out of action for just over half an hour and while you might see the green tick of syncing joy on your PC, we were still unable to upload any new files through both the internet and desktop iteration -- in fact the web interface is completely down. We're not sure if this is a server issue or perhaps a delicious new feature with teething issues, but we've reached out to Dropbox and will update when we hear back.

Update: Looks like you can return to your regularly-scheduled uploading. Still no word on what caused the incident yet.

Xbox LIVE down, Microsoft working on a fix (update: it’s back!)

Xbox LIVE down, Microsoft working on a fix

Well, bad news gaming addicts, Xbox LIVE is temporarily out of commission. We received a deluge of tips this morning from readers saying the service is down and now Microsoft has updated its support page confirming the outage. The cause behind the issue isn't clear yet, but the fine folks in Redmond are aware of it and actively working on a fix. User accounts are inaccessible from both the console and Xbox.com, but hopefully things will be back up and running soon, and you can return to your regularly scheduled programming of underwear-clad Black Ops II.

Update: And everything is back to normal. Our short lived national nightmare is over.
