I am sorry but I do find this quite funny.
I did not realise that so many services or users relied on this one data centre.

Have you lost your internet as well or just BBM and email?
Is your twitter and facebook down on your phone as well?

I don't really use instant messaging much but when I do its MSN.
Email is windows live but I have gmail as well
I use Tweetdeck on my phone but could just use the twitter app or web version.
Facebook is by app or web
My internet is either three mobile or my wifi and everything works on either.

All different services provided by different systems, I cant believe Blackberry are so reliant on these servers to work.

Another nail in the coffin for them
