I predict 3 more threads will be made about this before it's over, in this very same forum.

Many times people will say "minecraft.net is having problems" to explain why you can't join servers, but I'd like to share the 2 specific sites that have to be working for people to be able to play, neither of which can be tested by loading up the minecraft.net homepage.
There are 2 major parts to this.
First, when you start up your game, then log in, your client will try to hit this site:
http://login.minecraft.net/
(I'm sure it really hits a page in that domain somewhere, I don't know where)
If you hit that page now and it says "bad login", that means it's working. When it is broken it will just never load, or give some other error.
Source: Tobias's twitter page. he is the server guy at Mojang
After you log into minecraft and your game starts, and you try to login to a server, the server will try to load up a URL to verify you. If that fails, you will see the "took too long to login" error or bad login.
That works by loading this URL:
http://session.minec...checkserver.jsp
It will say "NOT YET" if its working, anything else is bad news.
Just some more detail on that, my server will fetch a URL that looks like this when I login:
http://session.minec... ... 5de779c3da
But just hitting that checkserver.jsp should be enough to see if its working, if it never loads, then you can know for sure it is broken and you'll just have to wait.
When I see that happen, I'll usually take the risk and put the server in offline mode, the problem is that without minecraft.net, I have no way to be sure a given user is really them, there are programs to fake your name, otherwise I'd just leave it like that forever.
Source: My own packet sniffing to see how it works.

Guys, We should just hope for the best.
Exactly, just be patient, i'm sure they can fix it within an hour or so, maybe even 15-30 minutes. Minecreaft got DDoS'd, just be patient for them to fix it.
