For a company making millions a day, shameful!
Not to mention the complete lack of public communication regarding the problem. I wonder if anyone over there is even aware of the issue?

There's a shortage of tits in Bitcoin, and consequently there's a dearth of public communication. Oh well.

Any update on this?

Any good alternatives to http://www.bitcoincharts.com for up to date charts?

They don't make millions per day at all... They charge a max of 0.6% of trade volume to both buyers and sellers. You can get a pretty good idea of how much they earn from looking at the volume figures on bitcoincharts (which won't load up for me at the moment).

It looks like bitcoincharts stopped taking data right after the small crash tonight.  Something must have crashed, either at their servers or the MtGox API servers.  And MtGox actually seems to be up, at least their REST API.

Mt. Gox homepage says the latest BTC price is $43.1 but Bitcoincharts says the latest mtgoxUSD is $34.2.  There's been a big disparity for a while now.  Anyone know what's going on?

The last quote on Bitcoincharts is kinda of old (30 min) so I guess it stopped updating for some reason?  Did the API feed go down?
