FlickrI was just working on a post about a handy tool for Flickr, when the site stopped responding. A quick look at the Flickr blog reveals the following note:

Some of our servers are ailing this AM. We've taken the site down to see if we can nurse them back to health! Hopefully this will not take long; we???ll keep you updated here!

As soon as the site comes back up, I'll do some screenshots and post the tip. In mean time, it's probably a good idea to postpone those photo uploads. While I've been able to get the servers to respond a couple of times, I'm pretty sure nothing I did was actually saved to the site.

Update: Flickr is back up and running, see here for some nice Flickr tools.
