This is going to cause so many problems, I had to cancel a podcast today because of this Leo. I'm praying it's back up 2moro. Been off for a good 12hrs now I think. Only 12 more to go then
Yeah, everyone has been hit hard. But Leo?! Leo: At least you can get some sleep, or just have Skype get Merlin on a hamster wheel and power one server you can use.
Oh just come on. A 99.999 availability still means you're gonna be down for a week each year. I think people are just mean towards a service which otherwise ranges from free to dirt cheap. If it makes people cancel podcasts then you could propably switch to another app such as gizmo which allows audio stream redirection to endpoints such as Audition etc.

No backup plan? iChat, even if its quality is subpar?

Yeah. I've been having the shivers all day... It's bad. It's the real crash of 2007!

Skype has confirmed it's a routing issue, 23+ hours at least

Hah, you'll have to go back to interviews via IRC or IM and posting the transcripts. :)

Quick, run to Vancouver and do your show there so we don't miss any podcast time. Man, this really stinks.

I was thinking of Leo when I heard of the outage.

Yeah right. Ekiga? Sounds terrible. Gizmo? No sound at all in Linux! Wengo? Crashes all the time. You actually tried those? I did..... X(

@twen: doesn't it still need to authenticate you through their servers?

I was able to use it quickly, but now it keeps trying to connect.

I hear you Leo this must be hard and there some you never missed a day and looks like Skype did it.

It worked for all 3 of my netcasts tonight but it was up and down when I wasn't using it.
I thought they were bullet proof? Nope. :-)
