With MTB, I was in at $45.27 and out at $46.27 (400 shares). Nothing earth shaking, but it felt good to have something react in the manner that I anticipated.

I think the traffic surge caused by the whole Ashton Kutcher vs. CNN and the emergence of Oprah on Twitter is kicking the crap out of their systems.

Is twitter down right now? Not completely. Stylesheets aren’t loading all the time, received a 500 error, and it won’t accept an image upload, but not completely down.

Isn’t this running on the Amazon cloud (AWS)? Where does the trouble lie?

Funny day.  Earthlink had a major outage as well.
