<p>Wow, Yahoo just can't catch a break. Yahoo's photo-sharing service Flickr went down this morning, in a brief outage that appears to have started around 11 AM ET, lasting for over an hour. The first report of the site's issues were posted to Twitter around 11 AM ET, but the velocity of tweets kicked in just after noon, which indicates the site may not have been fully down for everyone.</p><p>It seems that Flickr.com had been failing to load for users. The message that was returned was "inactivity timeout." The text on the site read: "Description: Too much time has passed without sending any data for document."</p><p>Other users are reporting seeing a cuter error message with a picture of a Panda on a leash. One "flickr down" report came in just a few minutes ago (12:52 PM ET), sharing this photo, so it's unclear if the outage is only partially resolved. And another showed up at 1:11 PM ET.</p><p>(Didn't Yahoo acqui-hire a bunch of engineers to fix things like this?)</p><p><a href="http://techcrunch.com/2013/12/12/yahoos-bad-week-continues-flickr-crashed-today-too/">Keep reading...</a></p><p>Read also:</p><p><a href="http://mashable.com/2013/12/12/flickr-outage-yahoo-mail/">Flickr Crashes Following Massive Yahoo Mail Outage</a> (Mashable)</p><p><a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-10811_3-57615441/after-yahoos-mail-outage-flickr-crashed-too/">After Yahoo's Mail outage, Flickr crashed too</a> (CNET)</p><p><a href="http://gigaom.com/2013/12/12/more-yahoo-woes-email-comes-up-but-flickr-goes-down/">More Yahoo woes: email comes up, but Flickr goes down</a> (GigaOM)</p><p>Explore: <a href="http://news.google.com/news/more?ncl=d-fVkoFjw2oofrMTGdlvbKUSuPRLM&ned=us">209 additional articles.</a></p>
