Grooveshark's Down

Got up this morning, was going to embed some interfaces for the new blog site, and what happens? Well I get a server error on the site. The reason?

To those of you who were redirected here, we apologize.


In an attempt to befriend Asian investors and increase office morale, we here at Grooveshark established some connections with the Chinese black market and imported our very own black-and-white Giant Panda (hereby known as "Pickles"). Unfortunately, due to circumstances no one could have foreseen, Pickles became agitated at the fluorescent lights and near-constant belly rubs and began clawing at our computers.


Pickles is currently thrashing about in the server room, causing the technical difficulties and temporary outage you just experienced. As soon as our interns return from Pier 1 with synthetic bamboo, a picnic basket and an oversized net, we will be able to return the servers back to normal and, if we can, rescue the coder that Pickles has taken as a prize.





Thank you for your patience.

Damn you Grooveshark and your sketchy investments...but it's all Pickles fault. A fellow tweeter said he'll capitalize on improving his PPU (Panda Protection Unit) for his server. I highly concur that I should do the same.

And if you're wondering why there is no Like button on Facebook nor a Digg button, it's because this is not news to enjoy. This is horrible indeed.
