A reader reports Sears.com has been down for much of Black Friday, the most overhyped shopping day of the year. They never learn, do they? Last year, Macy's and Wal-Mart saw outages. The Sears site is currently displaying a "high traffic volume" excuse page. Anyone know what knocked the site offline? Nothing on this year's Black Friday list of specials strikes me as a must-click.
