Recent Apple Store Crash due to problems all over the internet?

Earlier this morning, the online Apple Store was down for hours and finally came back up a few hours ago. We would love to announce a new Mac Pro, the iPhone 5, and an iPad 3, it appears that nothing has changed  at all in the store, and the outage might have been due to a larger problem with the Internet, TUAW reports.

Apple was not the only company getting hit with large issues today. VoIP carrier Ooma is reporting a nationwide outage although some Californian users are reporting that the problems are starting to ease off. John Gruber’s Daring Fireball blog was down part of the morning, and readers and bloggers have been reporting that Twitter was shot out of its nest, Facebook was temporarily faceless, and various ISPs are having issues.
