<p>So I&#8217;m trying to test this new site that was passed along to me: <a href="http://DownForEveryoneOrJustMe.com">DownForEveryoneOrJustMe.com</a> and am experiencing trouble finding sites that could be potentially &#8220;down&#8221;.  (Internet, you are just too perfect today.)  But finally found one with one of my favorite radio stations, <a href="http://www.wfmu.org">WFMU</a>.  When I tried streaming their online radio stream in iTunes, nothing happened.  So that led me to the mothership site, WFMU.org and that didn&#8217;t work either.</p>
<p>Perfect time to try this new &#8220;down for everyone or just me&#8221; site right?  Well, kind of.  I typed it in and got the following read out: &#8220;Huh? doesn&#8217;t look like a site on the interwho.&#8221;  A message that is most certainly incorrect.  It has exsisted for years.  So what could this be?</p>
