While I don't know about Internet traffic, there's a report up now, in PDF format, at http://www.pewinternet.org/reports/toc.asp?Report=45 that gives information from our tracking surveys last week based on questions concerning Internet use during and after the attacks in NYC and DC.

Has anyone seen statistics on Internet traffic on Sept. 11 and 12? If so, where? I noticed that the major news websites were really "slow" on Sept. 11. I also heard the CEO of Earthlink on NPR talk about huge spikes in traffic to his member sites. He also mentioned that e-mail use was down, and the use of synchronous chat was up. I'm teaching a CMC class and would love to talk about it in class.
