If you needed an indication of how popular talk of Apple TV hacking has become in one short week, take a look at AppleTVHacks.net's experience. For hours this morning, the site was taken down by its ISP, not because of bandwidth—site admin Tom Anthony stacked up on 150GB—but because there was too much traffic for the server's CPU to handle. He's running what looks like a plain-jane WordPress installation too, nothing crazy.

Tom, of course, only found out after heading off for a short break to an island retreat. With all the fuss, who can blame him?

"The site has handled several Diggs, and been Slashdotted, so I don't know what could have happened to cause this, but obviously cannot check!"

The site's back up now, however, and it, along with the Awkward TV wiki and Hackint0sh are among the places to watch if you want to get involved in the the latest Mac-hacking adventures.

Enjoy your vacation, Tom!
