Instagram Goes DOWN!

Instagram went down Saturday morning, leaving some morning Internet users in the lurch for their Internet photograph sharing needs. What were Angelenos to do while trying to post from the Grilled Cheese Invitational? The Los Angeles Times Book Festival? Coachella?

The site went down around 9 a.m., but a ray of hope appeared for those wishing to share their overheated concert selfies as the site returned around 10:30 a.m. — but only briefly, as they apparently continued to work through site problems.

When Instagram went down, when you tried loading an Instagram photo on a desktop computer, you got a "504 Gateway Time-out." When you tried to load the homepage, you were given a screen with — ironically enough for Instagram — a broken image link. It was accompanied by this message:

"Sorry, we couldn't complete your request. Our team has been notified and will investigate as soon as possible."

Later in the morning, that was replaced by yet another error message.

In the iPhone app, the home screen wouldn't update, trying to load some other pages delivered a "couldn't refresh feed" message and trying to pull up favorites delivered the same message as the website.

Instagram said that the service was down to what it termed "a feed delivery issue."

And it has now went down again and is giving the same 504 gateway error.

If I wasn't making money with it, it could stay down forever lol

It seems to be luckily back up now.

Here's the tweet that mentions that they were working on some issues:



But looks like they fixed the issue and are now back with a new redesigned website as well.

they are probably adjusting it so that not all your followers see your posts. Darth Facebook.

So?

How do you make money from it.
