Is Google Down?

Do you really think Google would be down?

 

Well, in my browser, adsense was down, analytics was down, gmail was down, search was down, blogspot was down, TBPR wasn't working... all of which I found awfully surprising since I expected that to mean for sure that the entire Internet had imploded or something.

Anyway, all started working as of a couple minutes ago.

 

OMG Google got hacked !!!!

 

yeah dont think google is down but I their long delay in pr update means something is going big internally. major restructure?

 

its fine in NY

 

Google is up for me, Spring Texas.

 

...yahoo.com, nytimes.com, msn.com all where down as well?

 

I highly doubt on google ever going down myself, its working fine here in the UK though.

 

I was thinking it was just my DC perhaps... and when I say adsense was "down" I don't mean my account page... the ads were actually not feeding on other website pages, including DP.

Anyway, all is back to normal, so who knows....

 

I've just tried to perform a search and I get the message -

"Firefox can't find the server at www.google.com"

Tried in IE as well, same thing. Tried google.co.uk, also down.

 

It sounds like you have a DNS issue.

 

Google works grand from here

 

Considering the number of geaographically dispersed servers and infrastructure they own, it's near to impossible.

No, is the answer.

 

It's working here.

 

Well... it was working for me when I wrote the post above about 1 minute ago... now it's not

 

If you're on a PC, restart and it should fix it

 

It's back for me now, it lasted only a few minutes, I'm pretty sure the problem was not my end.

 

Hmm...weighing the possibilities ...

Google issue or local issue .. Google issue or local issue ... I think local issue is far more likely.

 

I just experienced a few minutes of downtime.

 

I too have experienced recent downtime with Google specifically.
