This actually began yesterday and at first I thought it was just my own internet connection that was having problems. But when I realized that just about all other pages were loading like normal, I did a search on Twitter and it turns out that I’m not the only one receiving errors with Google Reader.
Load times have been sluggish and persistent errors are popping up every few minutes or so. I hope this doesn’t last the weekend.

According to FlightAware, the status of US Airways flight 1549 — the same flight that crashed today in the Hudson River — is that it has arrived at its destination. I guess it’s half-right, since it also lists LaGuardia Airport as the origin and destination, even though North Carolina was the real intended destination.
And if you look down at the bottom of the FlightAware page (screenshot above), you’ll also see that the plane was only flying for 6 minutes in total before going down.
US Airways on the other hand has simply listed the flight as ‘Status Exception’ and included a phone number for those who may want to call to inquire about family members.

Here’s an important lesson from a 3rd grader about spelling correctly. One missing letter can put a whole different meaning behind what you write.
Note taken! Thanks Michelle!
