Is there someplace I can follow what the status is - like on twitter??
A public status dashboard is available at http://status.wikimedia.org
Technical details are automatically pushed to identi.ca and twitter: http://identi.ca/wikimediatech http://twitter.
On a more general note, does the error page we display when the site goes down (for whatever reason) link to theses places? From what I remember from last time I saw that page it only links to an IRC channel. Perhaps it should refer people to the status dashboard and also link to the donation page?
