The Day After Its $1.2B Purchase By Microsoft, Yammer Goes Down

Screen shot 2012-06-26 at 15.43.42

Murphy’s Law — or some jaded users might just call it Yammer’s law: One day after Yammer announced that it got bought by Microsoft for $1.2 billion, the enterprise social networking site has gone down.

The crash will not do any favors to Microsoft, which plans to integrate the company into its Microsoft Office division and looks to be part of a wider, integrated social and cloud push from the Redmond, Washington software giant.

I’m in London and have been noticing our spinning wheel for about an hour, although Eric in San Francisco tells me he’s seen his Yammer go up and down in that time.

We’re reaching out to Yammer to find out what is going on.

For those who are regular users of the Yammer closed-enterprise social network, this may be familiar territory: the site has had some downtime issues before, although this one has to be the crash with the best (worst) timing of them all.

More to come.
