Seriously... pretty bad when a city's residents have to rely on some random private company (i.e. not contracted by city or anything) to make its public transit data accessible! We're definitely lucky to have this service here. With all the ubernerds in this little town -- at CMU, etc. -- it's pretty shameful that the PAT site is still so utterly worthless in 2008. Works like something my ass coded.
FWIW, you can use http://bus.maya.com in the meantime. Interface is a little clunky, but still worlds better than PAT. They may not have the very most recent data from the June update (often takes them a while to get it, since PAT isn't forthcoming with it in any usable format, I believe). But usually things don't change *that* much to make this a problem.
In any case, let's hope the good folks at Google manage to get this back up before our city's infrastructure collapses :P

Alas, my beloved Pittsburgh google transit is down. Thanks for the post clarifying it. I shall suffer through Port Authority pdfs once more.

Hi Joseph,
Unfortunately, transit routing in Pittsburgh won't be back to normal for another week or so, partly because of a temporary problem on our end (sorry!) and partly because we didn't receive updated schedules from the Port Authority in time. Sorry for the inconvenience, and hang tight!

Is it just me, or does Pittsburgh not offer transit information anymore? Example, these directions should give me transit options:
