The popular news-and-nonsense aggregation site Fark has been unreachable for most visitors for much of the morning. According to one comment posted on rival site Digg, this message was visible to those lucky enough to make a connection to Fark: “Our upstream provider is having some problems with their fiber connections this morning. They’re working on it.” Guess we might have to add them to this list, although that seems a tad unfair if it’s not their fault. (Update, 12:15: They appear to be back.)
