Yahoo.com is down

Written by Andre Yoskowitz @ 14 Oct 2010 5:37 User comments (9)

Update: Back up.

This is a quick blurb for now as there is no other information on the matter but the world's second largest portal, Yahoo.com is currently down with visitors receiving the "Connection Timed Out" error.

Earlier today we reported that AOL and specialty firms were in talks to bid for the portal.

More info as it becomes available.
