Don't stop till you give enough, Jackson fans!
Part of the problem thus far is that the city's servers were apparently not set up to handle web traffic from literally HUNDREDS of contributors:

Part of the problem thus far is that the city's servers were apparently not set up to handle web traffic from literally HUNDREDS of contributors:
After collecting more than $17,000 from hundreds of donors in support of the Michael Jackson Memorial Tuesday morning, the City's Information Technology Agency could not handle the high volume of traffic or adequately respond to frequent and prolonged server crashes. Consequently, the City was unable to receive contributions for several hours Tuesday afternoon. The server also failed for at least 12 consecutive hours Tuesday evening, from 8:00 PM (PST) through 8:00 AM (PST) the next day, and periodically throughout Wednesday morning.Epic Michael Jackson fail.
