I agree, this is strange. I thought my internet wasn't working here at my house because I was trying to load my Blockchain wallet, even though it's showing full WiFi, it won't load. I don't want to sound like a conspiracy theorist but none of the BTC sites I'm trying to go to are loading... btc-e.com, primedice.com, blockchain.info... all say "This webpage is not available" and I am in the U.S. Very strange because all of the "regular" websites I'm trying are going through fine. Bitcointalk is working for me also as you can tell.
EDIT: Now all of them are working for me. Very odd that many of us in the U.S. experienced a short "black out" there...
