United Airlines is experiencing computer problems that has left flights grounded. Along with that, trading the New York Stock Exchange has been halted due to a “technical issue.” To top it off, for a time, the Wall Street Journal’s homepage was inaccessible:

In case you're freaking out, the WSJ homepage also went down a few times this weekend. And our sub pages like http://t.co/HpSLYtvrTm are up.

DHS tells @jimsciutto: "no signs of malicious activity at this time" with regard to @nyse and @united situations.

What to do? The solutions are obvious:
All NYSE floor trading HALTED. Did they try turning the stock exchange off and then turning it on again?

Take it away, Obama administration and Al Gore!
Perhaps there’s a simpler explanation for one of the problems:
