As a side effect of Skype’s Login Problem our own users experienced long login times. We log our clients into skype during the login in process into WinWeb’s OnlineOffice.
BTW, that has been changed now, so I will no longer delay the login to our console. But this demonstrates the inherent danger of mash-up in the online software industry (SaaS, Web 2.0). You not only mash-up functionality, but possibly also the problems.
Something to consider, when you consider the pros and cons of mash-ups. The silence of the pro mash-up community to this outage is indicative of these unresolved issues.
