Funny. I assume the "karma" is Arrington's bad karma for saying twitter should not have spoken before the fact about their steps to avoid downtime during WWDC.

TC had it coming, that's for sure.

MacRumors had them all beat.

Logged in just to upmod you. They were on Twitter, Plurk, IRC, not to mention their site showed no bit of the load they were carrying.

MacRumors was smart about it. They had JavaScript that would poll for updates once a minute, and a little spinny thing to make the users think it was constantly updating. Far less load than having users refresh the entire page every 5 seconds.

Perhaps instant karma also refers to the karma the submitter expected for posting TC come-up-ins. A short title with much depth.

Comeuppance.

I'm a spelling nutter, too. I'll file this one for later use. I think it may be the first time I've ever seen it written or attempted to write the word. Thanks!

I am glad TC went down. I have lost a lot of respect for Mike over his constant Twitter bashing every single day. He has his head so far up his arse sometimes its unbelievable.

MacRumors definitely had the news spot on, I had it in its own window on a second screen, I didn't have to do anything, no constant reloading, just glance over every min. But Gizmodo had the best pictues, SO close to the stage, that I checked every few mins or so.
