Wow, craigslist is still down after 10:00 PM.

I was at 465 California all day and our power never once went out. I did hear a lot more sirens going down California than usual, though.

SFist doesn't post enough to be a main site for boredom relief...

5th and Market, down 4 times, we are just getting our systems back up. I had a sales rep climb 6 floors to make his meeting with me, go Alucobond!

Nothing happening on Sacramento and Battery. Man, give us our Craigslist and LiveJournal and Yelp back! Those were my three main sites for boredom relief!

Yelp is down! And just as when I was going to post my scathing review of a local restaurant. I smell a conspiracy.

I was in one of the upper floors of 425 California when the power went out.... four times. Instead of waiting for the one & only elevator working, I took the stairs down. Gosh, that's a long haul. Glad it was all downhill. Even though I heard all the sirens outside, there were no firetrucks parked there when I got to the ground floor, tho.

One Maritime here... we have had the power go out six times this afternoon. We have been told PG&E is having problems.

Well, in a related story, with Craigslist down, I've finally done some work for the first time this week.

Union & Montgomery. Power's been on for a bit, after six interruptions. I'm hearing lots of sirens, though.

Well, sucks to be 365 Main. Sheesh, craigslist down? Somebody's getting a refund.

guest

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:54:20 -0800

No power in Colo 4 in 365 Main. Yelp, Livejournal, Typepad, Craigslist, Vox, Hi5, and Technorati all got hit bad.

guest

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:53:52 -0800

yep, went out five times i think here at montgomery and clay. building management came on the speakers and said that pg&e said this would happen for the next two hours. nothing's happened since, though.

guest

Five outages so far at my bldg. at Hawthorne and Howard.

guest

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:50:53 -0800

Maritime Building at Front and Clay has had 4 or 5 outages. I have lost the same document twice and I just got a call from a man named Joaquin. He asked me if my refrigerator is running.

My boxes in colo 7 are fine. ServPath/ColoServ nextdoor though... i hear they hit the fan (per usual)

As far as I know, many of the sites listed that are down (craigslist, Live Journal, Yelp) are hosted at 365 Main Street. OTOH, my company has equipment there (and across the way at 360 Spear) and all of our power circuits stayed up. Anyone with knowledge of that facility know which rooms are having problems? My stuff is in colo 2. (Anon for this.)

There was an SFFD response to 425 Market about 1420, about 6 engines or so. Nothing visible. The FF's were staged outside waiting. Power appears to be on in the building. Nothing amiss here at Sansome and Bush.

civic center seems to be fine, at least my building is...

Yelp.com is down too! How can I make any life-decisions without consulting my peers!?!?

I hope my refrigerator and UPS on my computer at home are holding up - oy.

555 Market is getting the same. 12 or so emergency response vehicles have passed on Market heading east.The Fountain next to our office (next to Chipotle) is smoking. Our elevators are out.

Indeed. We're on #6, at this point (3rd & Howard). SFGate has a story here.

Suz

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:37:18 -0800

Yup (Bryant@2nd here) Word on the street (ok, a street) is that Fruit of the Loom is shooting a commercial in the vicinity and has managed to do something terrible to our grid in the process. Shrug. And apparently having every chronophage website I frequent be headquartered in FiDi is less cool than I had previously thought.

guest

Fremont and Market. I tried to recover the same document three times with no success.

guest

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:35:59 -0800

The power just went down for the 4th time on Battery @ Broadway.... I wonder if the Hanes commercial being filmed down the street has anything to do with it? www.getinetdesign.com

Davis & Broadway too..... and 151 Union

Power went out for a few minutes this afternoon while eating at Naan & Curry in North Beach. LiveJournal (based in SF) is down -- wonder if that's related.

guest

Tue, 24 Jul 2007 14:31:41 -0800

The power's gone out in my office @ 2nd & Brannan 4 times this afternoon. Sheesh!
