Yes, YouTube appears to be down currently. Looks like it’s down at least 15 minutes now (1:48pm PST). The last time it was down was on June 15th according to ClickForNick.com.  “Once in awhile

YouTube does stop working, which of course with a site that gets as much traffic as it does is doing quite well for down tiime vs uptime.”

I Haven’t heard of YouTube being down since May 2008, February 2008, November 2007, and also according to a Digg post back in October 2006.

*UPDATE: Tuesday, June 23, 2009, 1:50 PM (PST)  – It seems to be up and running again, but why the heck were they down?
