Is LinkedIn down?

Sat Aug 16 16:03:17 UTC 2014

Stuart,

You don't tell us if it's www.linkedin.com or linkedin.com, but in any case,
because they serve up that site around the world using some form of GLB it
may resolve to different IP depending on where you are.  From my perspective
it is working via Cogent, and I can hit 108.174.2.129, too:

No reply from LinkedIn support, but i see plenty of Verizon and Level3
customers cannot access LinkedIn for 24 hrs.
216.52.242.113 works ok.
