Title: Sign of the Apocalypse? Google Down
Post by: AUChizad on July 10, 2013, 10:01:00 AM

I can't function without it. I feel like I left the house without my watch, wedding ring, a belt, and I'm wearing two non-matching shoes.

Gmail is both my non-business primary email account, and how I communicate with most people in my life via chat. Got some stuff going on with one of the houses that I need to refer to an email about.

Also, YouTube (owned by Google) is down, so it's time to start eating parts of your own body to survive.

I just noticed that too.  Putting some Frank's Hot Sauce on my left forearm.  Frank's makes everything taste better.

Apparently, it's only affecting the SouthEast United States.

So bizarre though, because my wife said she's been chatting people on GChat all day. Other people in New Orleans.

Is anyone else able to access Google, YouTube, etc.?

(CNN) -- Google and related services were inaccessible to some users Wednesday morning, prompting confusion and consternation across the Web.

Reports of outages began about 9:30 a.m. ET and quickly spread on Twitter, with users asking if the problem was affecting others as well.

Among the services affected were Gmail, Google Plus, Google Drive and YouTube. According to anecdotal reports, the outages appeared to be most prevalent among users in the Southeastern U.S.

Google did not immediately comment on the problem.

"If google is down... How will I ever google "why is google down?" tweeted Adam Sullivan, in one of many similar comments.

"Oh dear God it's the end of humanity as we know. Need to go buy bread and milk.#googledown," added Rebeccah Connelly.

I'M BACK UP!!!!

Guess I'll go wash the war paint I smeared on my face in blood, put out this fire in my cube, and re-appropriate my tie for its intended use instead of using it as a headband.
