YouTube Server Goes Down For Period Of Time Saturday Morning

A number of blogs reported early this morning that the YouTube server wnet down this morning for a short time, causing a certain amount of anxiousness in the blogosphere. The website Center Networks reports:

YouTube down? We have been receiving reports for the past 90 minutes that users are not able to access YouTube. Upon further testing, it looks like the YouTube CDN (static file server) is down. All images are not currently being served (see screenshot below) but videos and everything else (commenting, searching, etc.) appears to be working as normal. To the casual YouTube user, it looks like the site is down.[...]

Update: 9:17am Eastern - additional reports are coming in that embedded videos are also down, we can confirm that videos on CN from YouTube are not loading.

The website notes that YouTube suffered two similar outages in February.
