Well considering that the guys behind Github are Spock fans (I only assume this because of http://www.logicalawesome.com) it is perfectly reasonable. :)

Some of us like Star Wars, others prefer Star Trek. All of us support injecting a little humor into our sites, though :)

+1 for this status site existing and being awesome. -1 for github being down so often. There are multiple websites such as aremysitesdown, do any of them provide similar status pages to interested parties?
