It’s not often that you can categorically put a monetary value on the cost of downtime but here is an example.

Because of technical glitches (to me that means it ‘aint working, which equals downtime) there is a huge pay-out being offered by Nasdaq to Facebook investors.

And not only is there a row about the Facebook IPO, seems that not everyone is happy with the offer of compensation either.

All very amusing reading. Uptime matters.
