PubMed on the Fritz

Previously I didn't post much about PubMed not working because in the past problems seemed to be few and far between and were resolved fairly quickly. But now, I don't know what is going on. All I can think is "Good Grief Charlie Brown." I don't think I a week has gone by these past couple of months that I haven't read some email about PubMed not working.

I have been slow to add my new library icons to PubMed because it just seems to be one big mess after another. I am all for the idea of perpetual beta but this is a little much. What is worse is that I think we librarians are left a little in the dark, wondering if it is our fault (icons, urls, etc.) or if it is PubMed's fault. There appears to be a big communication problem. Perhaps PubMed might have a updated blog or information page detailing the known issues and resolutions.
