Since Amazon S3 server is down many websites are experiencing problem with Avatars. Many web developers are using Amazon S3 because it’s cheap, productive and they don’t use their hosting storage as well as bandwidth.

Today I asked on Plurk “Is Plurk using Amazon S3 Server too?” By asking that question plurkers reported sites that don’t have avatars due to Amazon S3:

Posterous.com

Getdropbox.com

Twitter.com

smugmug.com

Tumblr.com

Friendfeed.com
