TMZ reports Jacko’s Death Grinds the Internet to a Halt
25 June 2009 161 One Comment
TMZ reports in the moments following Michael Jackson’s death — so many people rushed to the Internet, that it practically stopped the entire WWW in its tracks.
Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, AIM — just a few of the scores of major web sites bombed by a tidal wave of traffic. Most of the sites still worked, but the epically high traffic numbers caused them all to move at a snail’s pace.
The last time the ‘net had this kind of traffic — Obama’s inauguration.
