Down goes the Windows Phone Web Marketplace [Edit]

Joe Fedewa is 23 years old and lives near Lansing, Michigan. He's been interested in technology ever since he got his first flip phone. Since then he's evolved from flip phones to smartphones, and become even more interested in everything from cord cutting to web browsers. Joe is also an avid sports fan and sci-fi movie geek. He's a Joe of all trades.

Oops. Looks like Microsoft has a little glitch on their hands. Heading to the web version of the Windows Phone Marketplace will greet you with the apology you see above. Microsoft has been running into some problems with the Marketplace recently. If you recall this weekend the phone Marketplace was down, and now the web Marketplace has joined in. The funny thing is that after MS removed the Marketplace functionality from Zune there is no way to access the Marketplace on your computer right now.

EDIT: It appears to be coming back in spots. Tread lightly.

    I still don’t get the reasoning behind pulling the market from Zune. If they had another product ready right now that they want people transitioning to, great. But just pulling a way to get to it ahead of time seems unneccessary.
