IOL has always had a useless website. It's not even XHTML complient, they're still using HTML from the nineties.
 
Its broken since early this morning, I suppose we will violate somebody's human rights if we want it fixed.:D Hmmm where shall I go today for news. www.news24.co.za.

This happens so often in the past I have switched to news24.

Surprised it has never been fixed.
 
Looks like all that meditation has paid off, 5 mins ago the site had no news at all. Like Zen, man. Clear your mind and let your soul bathe in the aura of that nothingness.
 
maybe IOL reads this forum :). This morning I got an email reading:

Good morning

IOL is not sending out our usual morning newsletter as we are experiencing serious technical issues. The site is intermittently not displaying and we are unable to publish any new articles. Our technical staff is working frantically to fix the problem, which has been with us for several days. As soon as we are able to publish again, we will resume our newsletter service. Please follow us on Twitter (@IOL) or on our Facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/IOLnews) to get updates on our technical issues.

Still down. They must be losing a lot of ad revenue not to mention the loss of readers.
