NASA HQ Survives The Great Crackberry Shutdown

Bereft of BlackBerrys, the Untethered Make Do, NY Times

"On Tuesday night at 8 p.m. Eastern time, technical problems cut off more than five million BlackBerry users in the United States from their cherished wireless e-mail. Service was restored 10 long, data-starved hours later."

Editor's note: I am amazed that NASA HQ continued to operate while most of its employees were totally isolated from the known universe during this crackberry blackout.
