Good morning from Pittsburgh Welcomes THE WORLD!
Here's my friend Chris's take (he's Editor-in-Chief): http://www.pittsburghcitypaper.ws/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A69082
"So it's no accident that when you want to find an economic success story, you have to come here -- to the place your market innovations forgot."
I'm too brick-and-mortar to have ever gotten a G account. I do use it as a backup for some of our remote users at the office, but I find the interface languorous and unpretty.
Ironically, I'm getting the "Patch Tuesday Made Me Move To Google Apps" ads. If I were the sort of person to make "FAIL" jokelets, I'd say "CONTEXTUAL ADS FAIL."
Apparently it was all of the emails being sent to the Awl email list that brought it down. Yes, apparently way too many emails are always going out to that list of people who subscribed to get Awl emails, apparently.

This should help get the riots started early.
First, we kill Piggy.
thanks god it's not just me.

I can't live like this!! It's not even Yom Kippur yet! Why must I suffer??
It's my fault, I added the Gmail firefox addon. I'll remove it immediately.
IMAP while you suffer.
I've never wanted to organize my contacts so badly now that I can't. Curses.
Jeez, relax, it went poopies for like 5 minutes, you'd think some Pittsburgh cop had thrown a donut at you.

Heh. I got "Spending an hour scheduling a 30-minute meeting made me go Google."
GMail has gone down roughly infinity times more often than our Rackspace Hosted Exchange.
It still works on Blackberry.
I was in the middle of three different conversations about gummi bears as an ice cream topping. Where now to vent my indignation at gummi-deniers?
how is that a debate? it's gross.

Gmail works for me at the office NEVER cause it's BLOCKED. There are children starving in China.
Oh thank goodness I thought my boss finally made good on her promise to block it.
