    google?

    is it just me or is google currently broken...? My firefox won't even load so ironically I'm using chrome. But it takes like 5 minutes for anything google related to open. The whole internet seems slower and friends in other parts of the country are saying they cannot get google to load.

    The outage that took Google offline for scores of users on Thursday was caused by a traffic routing error, the company now says. The Google outage affected users across the United States and in numerous other countries. The vast majority of Google services became unavailable, including Gmail, YouTube, Google News, and even the google.com home page.

    "An error in one of our systems caused us to direct some of our Web traffic through Asia, which created a traffic jam," explains Urs Hoelzle, Google's senior VP of operations.

    The error affected about 14 percent of Google users worldwide, Hoelzle estimates. Users on both coasts of the U.S. as well as in nations such as China, Australia, and France all reported problems.

    "Imagine if you were trying to fly from New York to San Francisco, but your plane was routed through an airport in Asia. And a bunch of other planes were sent that way too, so your flight was backed up and your journey took much longer than expected. That's basically what happened," Hoelzle says.
    what concerns me is 1) my firefox wouldn't even load due to this(presumably due to some add-ons?), 2) it is concerning how many other websites didn't load properly due to some integration with google through google ads, or googlesyndication et cetera...

    No longer a Flashkit mod, not even by stealth

    Insanity is just a point of view. After all, the world looks pretty normal through your own underpants.

    Omnibox failed me yet again. Even going to google.com and searching has failed me for the past few days. Only way for it to work is to uninstall, then install again. Daily. Bah~
