GMail Experiences Serious Outage

JacobSteelsmith was one of many readers to note an ongoing problem with Gmail: "As I type this, GMail is experiencing a major outage. The application status page says there is a problem with GMail affecting a majority of its users. It states a resolution is expected within the next 1.2 hours (no, not a typo on my part). However, email can still be accessed via POP or IMAP, but not, it appears, through an Android device such as the G1." It's also affecting corporate users: Reader David Lechnyr writes "We run a hosted Google Apps system and have been receiving 502 Server Error responses for the past hour. The unusual thing about this is that our Google phone support rep (which paid accounts get) indicated that this outage is also affecting Google employees as well, making it difficult to coordinate."

    Do you at least have an upskirt photo of your foul-mouthed girlfriend to tide us over until Fyzzler's gmail account is working?

    That is the sort of image the President wants Americans to believe. Everyone in healthcare is incompetent, corrupt, etc. Only He can save you if you get sick, not the evil doctor who just wants to take your tonsils out to buy another Lamborghini.

    If these pesky people don't get in his way, everything would be just right [or is it left?].
