piuk, you're doing it wrong! You're suppose to wait a week or two before a hack occurs at BlockChain, not just a few hours after I thank you. Surely, you don't want folks here to think you're some sort of amateur, now do you?
This post is strictly tongue-in-cheek, but I will quit laughing come tomorrow is the site is still down.
Later, bud.

Topic: FirstBits on BlockChain (Block Chain): Where did they go? (Read 801 times)
Firstbits has been disabled temporarily to reduce database load. At the moment I am not sure when it will be available again.
Thank you so kindly, piuk, for your timely and informable reply. Ironically, the last online wallet entity of which I thanked its principle for clearing up an issue went dark about a week later. Please till me that a near future hack is not iminent.
I guess that also makes FirstBits dead in the water, since they use BC's API to generate FBs, as I've already tried to do to no success.

I'm going to PM piuk to see if he can shed some light on this.
FirstBits doesn't recognize nor generates them either, now. Mongo still so sad.
I think that's because they use the Blockchain.info API.
I noticed the same thing, I created a vanity address starting with 1ECDSA I want to put on my license plate, but for some reason blockchain.info isn't recognizing the Firstbits even though I sent a small transaction to it.

Is FirstBits and BlockChain not playing nice with each other? I no longer see the short URL on blockchain.info, nor a particular one I use and shared generates the intended page. Mongo so sad!
