'Web blog hosting platform WordPress.com is currently facing a
significant technical issue that has resulted in premium blogs going
down or reverting to using default themes. Impacted sites include
major news outlets like BBC America, TechCrunch, 9to5Mac, 9to5Google,
VentureBeat, DroneDJ, and Electrek; but also many companies that were
using the WordPress.com's VIP offering to host corporate blogs, such
as Facebook, the Wikimedia Foundation, and others. Automattic, the
company behind the WordPress.com service has admitted to the technical
issue in a series of tweets and a blog post from its engineering
staff.'
