Yesterday it was very sluggish and right now it's down for the count for me. Boy, it makes me wonder whether I should be relying on it so heavily for gmail, documents/spreadsheets, my calendar and all the other stuff I rely on.
Anyone else having issues lately?

I see they were down for 15 minutes in May of '05 and that was big news. At this point they've been down (at least in my area) for going on 10 minutes now.

Just tried several inquiries this AM and it seems to be working fine, as of now.

Hmm. Must be something in my area. All other sites fine for me but can't get Google, Google groups, Google earth won't initialize... CARP!

I did a Yahoo search and found that in Ohio and Tennessee there was a fairly big issue in May too. I may have to rethink my big reliance on their features/tools. Of late I've been relying heavily on especially the calendar and docs/spreadsheets - and of course gmail.
It's back up for me now.

Haha no way. I've done too much work on it. If I have my way (shhh, don't tell my wife who would love to move some day) I'll die in that home :)

Just a guess, but maybe this has something to do with it?
