Default Wordpress Down?
I've been trying to log in to my Wordpress blog for about an hour now and can't get in. I keep getting the error message about either being offline or the website is experiencing difficulties. Anyone know what's going on? And my blog feed isn't appearing in my header here anymore either. What's the deal?

I dunno, but it's not just you. I haven't been able to get in for a while either. A little bit ago it said I'd be able to get in in 27 minutes, now it says 35 so...

At one point my blog was down too but at least it is back up.

Patience I guess...

I was able to finally get to the home screen of Wordpress, but when I tried to login I got a message saying that they were sorry for the lack of notice, but my dashboard would be down for the next 4 minutes. Still waiting though.... Oh well. At least my feed is listed in the header here again.

Hi Yvone, I can see your blog online now when I click the link from your website - they must have fixed the mess
Even the mighty Google goes down from time to time...it's unavoidable, but frustrating when something like a blog that you might use daily isn't readily available - but it looks OK now!

I don't see your blog feed here in your profile though (at least not on this post) so you may want to go back into your profile and add your RSS feed once again.

Thanks for checking Tess. I finally gave up and went to be around 1:30am and I still couldn't log in. I'm just sad I missed the first blog carnival! Oh well, I hope it will happen again next week - I'll definitely participate! I had a blog all written in my head for it, just couldn't post it.

Yvone, you can always check the support forums at www.wordpress.org as well. There are lots of Wordpress-y people there to answer questions. If it happens again, I'd post a note on the troubleshooting forum. I'm glad you're all better, though!
