This service is handy right about now... http://reports.panopta.com/cloudharmony/ Seems to just be Dallas. Anyone know what data center that is and who else is there (to see how widespread it is).

Webfaction is in that datacenter and they seem unaffected.

Totally subjective, but with slicehost I recall that their Dallas center had problems noticeably more often.

Is there something about Dallas, for Linode or Slicehost or both?

It's The Planet. I have two servers there and both are up, but TP actually has 6 different datacenter networks in Dallas (last I checked, anyway), so that doesn't necessarily mean anything. But searching Twitter for @theplanet during a Planet outage usually leads to all sorts of evidence of an outage, and there's none at the moment unrelated to Linode.

Dallas seemed to be a problem for mosso -> Rackspace Cloud Sites, too. Just setup a linode in Dallas for a client last week, too. I hesitated to use Dallas, but I thought surely I was being irrational. It's still probably true that I was, but dang.
