Around 7 a.m EST I had the same problem on my home and work machine. Google pages weren't loading just hanging.
It was down for me for about 10 minutes this morning and also DP wouldn't load (waiting for the analytics code).
I think it may be a node issue for the internet. I was accessing google fine when I posted earlier, but I went to check some other sites, and I'm not able to access them.
Usually I would have assumed the problem was on your end, but I too noticed that I could not get to Google earlier this morning for about 15 minutes. Like you said, I had no trouble getting to other sites, so I guess Google did have a few minutes of downtime, which is a pretty rare event. It's kind of the geeky version of a solar eclipse.
Yes your right don't worry I am done my gimp attack , I will let them survive awhile if they credit my adsense account correctly....
With 500,000 computers and a bunch of data centers, Google can't be down even theoretically. Show me the proof.
I can put them down to bed in 5 minutes don't be a asshat anyone could.... 1000s whatever dork, yes 1000 datacenters, 4 serving results generally.... Loadbalancing on 4 servers? yah thats so imposibble to mess up don't talk out your ass or your ear.
