Did something weird just happen with the CNN website?
I tried to go to it just now and got a "domain not found" message. Has this happened to anyone else in the last hour or so?

Sorry, we can't find "http://cnn.commen". We suggest that you check the spelling of the web address or search above.

edit: That came from clicking the cnn link on google. works fine if I type in the addy manually

9. Happened to me too. My guess is that...
CNN was experimenting with it's domain name. Might be trying different language versions and redirecting CNN.com to its English version which could be cnn.com/en or something like that. But some programmer made a typo.

Speculation only. In any case, things are back to normal.

10. Yes, you can see the pages in their subdirectories, but not their main index page.
Go here:
http://www.cnn.com/US

and you can still see it.
