Any place to find out about general internet outages ?

These past few days I've been having lots of high latency, packet loss and routing weirdness, but it seems like the issue(s) lie beyond Start's network. For example I've been having brutal lag in Diablo 3 and League of Legends, lots of big web sites are super slow, even CDN stuff like Vimeo is suddenly unplayable, my mail server is timing out from intermittent packet loss in or near TorIX, and even server-to-server heartbeats are getting chewed up... Maybe someone breached a bunch of core routers, or some DDOS is plugging the smaller pipes, or [insert sucky reason].

So my question: is there anywhere on the web that might serve as a news feed / clearinghouse for this sort of stuff ? I know about Internettrafficreport.com, but it seems like they give green lights even when the entire goddamned internet is on tilt...
