What a Day!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What a Day! Crazy day it has been! Crazy Crazy day!

First thing in the morning, I go to office to pass time and realize (thru Twitter) that the Inception DVD is out. Voila, have got something to do today methinks. I try browsing in local crosswords, odyssey et al but in vain. I even try looking into Amazon and was contemplating on getting it shipped. In the meantime S calls me and wants a sudden 3 day holiday. So there I am, browsing for hotels, flights, and my regular weekend movie tickets when suddenly I see a re-tweet saying this:

WE ARE GLAD TO TELL YOU THAT http://www.mastercard.com/ is DOWN AND IT'S CONFIRMED! #ddos #wikileaks #PAYBACK"

#BBCbreakingnews confirms this and #Bookmyshow advises caution for payments being done through MasterCard.

Even though it's unethical, the effort should be appreciated just for the sheer brilliance that would have gone behind it.

One tweet says it all in their own style:

Seeing MasterCard site down : priceless

And what do they call it? Operation Payback.

Nice. Mighty Nice.
