Microsoft Live Spaces Has Highest Downtime of Ten Top Social Networks
Written by Allen Stern - November 21, 2007
Pingdom has released their latest downtime study - this time for the top social networks. Windows Live Spaces came in with the highest downtime - 3 hours in the last month. Pingdom notes, "In the Windows Live Spaces example, three hours may not sound like all that much over a month, but it is three hours of lost page views and ad exposure that Microsoft will never get back."
Other names in the list: MySpace and Facebook clocked in 10 minutes of downtime this month, Bebo at 30 minutes and Xanga at 2 hours. Yahoo 360 was the big winner with zero downtime in the month.
