Micheal Jackson Breaks the Internet

The article Jackson dies, almost takes Internet with him notes all the websites that are buckling under the weight of mourners of the King of Pop. LJ and JF have been particularly robust. And we all thought that Potterdämmerung would be the end of the internets. At least he went out with flair.
