YouTube Down: Service Unavailable, What’s Going On?

The most popular video sharing website on the net, YouTube, has reportedly come up up with the error message of http/1.1 service unavailable, meaning that their server is down. What does this mean then?

This could be for a number of reasons, the most likely being that there may have been some kind of internal mistake or error that lead to the website being out on hold for a while. Another reason as to why YouTube is down could be that too much traffic made it’s way to YouTube, which could not be handled, lead to it crashing internally.

Personally, I doubt there is any kind of update running accross the site, due to the fact that they would be able to put up a message to their millions of viewers, informing them that the site is not running. Whatever the reason, YouTube was said to be down and noone knows why exactly.
