    Or if you think it might just be your computer or your internet connection but you're not positive, if you put this site in your bookmarks, you'll always be able to check:
    http://www.downforeveryoneorjustme.com/
    just type in quiltingboard.com and click. It'll let you know if there is a problem with them or it really is just you ;)
    You can check any site.

    that's a good site, but if a website is hosted on a different server in different areas, it'll show as up for someone and down for someone else.

    Example: http://nanowrimo.org <- it's hosted by Amazon EC2 volumes, and my area falls under the N. Virgina one. Same for my Netflix online streaming. Can't get that on my tv. :( Been down for 18 or so hours.
