Yes, according to multiple reports and our own experience (see left) Yahoo.com, the Internet’s biggest portal is currently down for the count, both in the US and abroad. Maybe the traffic behemoth couldn’t take all the “merging with AOL” speculation and just decided to take the day off?

From what it looks like Yahoo!

subsites like mail.yahoo.com and news.yahoo.com are still up. The “Connection Refused” problem seems only be affecting Yahoo.com itself.

This is indicative of some serious issues as, in contrast to more mercurial services like Twitter, I’ve never seen the site go down in my lifetime. I have contacted Yahoo for more info and and they have confirmed that it is just the homepage and that they’re working on a fix.
