ObamaCare Website Will Be Down On Saturday For Scheduled Maintenance; It's Not Complicated

Reuters is reporting:
The glitch-ridden website used to sign up for insurance under President Barack Obama's healthcare law will be down for "extended maintenance" overnight on Saturday, the Department of Health and Human Services said. 
The website has been plagued by technology problems and has not worked reliably since its launch on October 1, embarrassing the administration and providing ammunition for Republicans seeking to roll back the law known as Obamacare. 
The application, enrollment tools, and "data hub" will not be available from about 9 p.m. ET on Saturday (0100 Sunday GMT) until 9 a.m. ET (1400 GMT) on Sunday, a spokeswoman for the department said in a statement, telling consumers they can call a toll-free call center to apply for insurance in the meantime.
Does anyone recall Google, Facebook, YouTube coming down for maintenance? It is now the industry standard to have "mirror sites" allowing these sites to remain up while taking the "mirror" site down for maintenance.

The young child who suggested "10" was about as close to six as anyone -- the number of ObamaCare enrollees the first day the website went live:

"It's not complicated; shop around," Mr Obama, said earlier.

It's Not Complicated, Shop Around, Mr Obama
