Indeed it is Tumblr's erorr page (http://tumblr.com/). It's interesting (re: shady) that they don't put their name or logo anywhere on the page. Most people visitors will never know it's Tumblr's fault when they attempt to visit a Tumblr-hosted site and run into this page.

Poor timing?
"We'll be back shortly!
We're making some changes to our infrastructure and certain pages may be unavailable for a few minutes.
We're very sorry for the inconvenience.
Please check back shortly."
I'm honestly not sure if this is a joke, or if the post made it before the commit or something, or if their new launch had technical difficulties?
Anybody know?
I'm the author of the post.. as others point out, this is actually Tumblr's fault and is incredibly frustrating (it just went down).
Given the last day we've had, this tends to fall into the "there's nothing we can do but laugh at this point" category. :)
Hopefully Tumblr comes back shortly, brings our blog back up with it, and you can read the full post in all its glory.
Sorry for the trouble!
That's tumblr error page... they've been having some performance issues.

Their blog is hosted on Tumblr which is down right now. Tumblr goes down a lot so check again later and it will probably be up.
