The Day that LJ Died

See http://www.livejournal.com/users/flickgc/389188.html for the full version:

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember how
Our LJs used to make us smile.
And I knew if Brad had his chance,
That he could make those servers dance,
And maybe we'd be blogging for a while.

But InterNap made LJ shiver,
There were no pages to deliver,
No gossip on our browsers
About who lost their trousers...

I can't remember if I cried
When I saw my page request denied
But I had to face the world outside,
The day that LJ died.

Why do I notice these things?

There's a powdered-chocolate-drink product called "Nesquick"; there's a tin of on the kitchen counter. But with the first two letters obscured by a ketchup bottle, I did wonder for a moment what had been going on in the kitchen last night.
