google down

Earlier on the morning of May 14, at about 10:45 AM Eastern Time, Google and its related services like Google News, Gmail and services were completely failing to some areas in the world and and at some places it starting to move extremely slowly. In some cases, Google services are reported to have completely stopped working.In the States, I've heard from users in NYC, Chicago, and San Francisco. They all report that Google searches were running at historically low speeds. I've heard similar reports from users Europe and Australia.

In addition, Google services like Google News and Gmail are completely failing. The Internet Storm Center is saying that it's received multiple "reports of a total fail of Google Applications. Gmail, Reader, Docs, News, Apps. etc." The Storm Center also states that it has "Reports of Google working in some areas (West Coast, co.uk, and others), however the outage appears to pretty widespread for the most part. Probably depends on which Google Data Center you are connected to." I can confirm that users in the UK seem to be doing well.
