When Steam starts up, the Store and Community tabs fail to load up and Steam is unable to connect to the Steam Cloud.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

This is why I hate steam, and avoid buy any games through it if I don't have to.

It's back up... it was down a total of about 3 minutes... It was probably due to the L2D2 update that was just released. Let's not get over excited steam is almost never down.

They're probably just updating it/maintaining servers, whatever.

I've never had problems with steam. Steam haters are ill-informed.

Steam has been hitting 2m+ concurrent users lately, they need more bandwidth as these problems only happen at peak hours if you have a look at steam stats.
