Windows Users Caused Skype Outage

  They aren't prepared for Windows updates? That doesn't sound right at all. Frankly they need to own up to the error and stop blaming others.

    Don't get all uppity - they did own up: "Skype said that whilst their peer-to-peer network has an inbuilt ability to self-heal, the event 'revealed a previously unseen software bug within the network resource allocation algorithm which prevented the self-healing function from working quickly.'" They were just explaining why it failed now, and not when the bug was introduced years ago.

  Hahahah -breath- hahahahah Ultimate justice for the evil default setting "Start and connect on boot".

    Gotta inflate those "average # of connected users/day" figures somehow. I wonder if Skype's infrastructure will wind up recapitulating half of Erlang's runtime system in a very depressing Greenspun's Tenth Law kind of way.
