In typical Microsoft fashion, the debut of their new digital photo sharing site sank like a stone in Lake Lanier.

Microsoft Corp.’s new digital photo sharing site spent most of its first day offline as its servers strained to handle a flood of traffic.

The site, called Photosynth, stitches together a set of related digital photos into a presentation that allows viewers to zoom and pan across the scene.

I think the next time I think about purchasing a Microsoft product, I will just buy a bus instead. Heck, I might as well drive myself to the funny farm.

People should be happy the site was just unreachable and wasn’t causing their computers to reboot, although I think it would be funny if Microsoft made their error pages look like the blue screen of death.
