I'm on a friends PC and this is what I get when I try and access MetaFilter:

Yeah, I've got the same thing happening when I try to use a browser that I haven't accessed MeFi through before. No member cookies - no joy, it would appear.

Logging in seems to make things happy again.

MeTa just made me re-log in on my own computer, if that's related to either the problem or the fix....

Now I'm curious about how Matt debugs and then rolls out new production code with people hitting this place 24/7....

Speaking of which, I'm back using Opera 6 as opposed to IE6, and the PostBox is all way over on the right, which is freaking me out a bit. Also, no snazzy new button-bar in it, but that may be by design.

Just FYI, Mr H.
