Gmail down
For the first in two years, the high-availability Gmail account is down for over five minutes. I am still cut off from my staple communication with the outside world and Screenshots readers.
UPDATES: It's OK now by 09:10hr.

It should be fine now. Google's services a bit cranky nowadays; it's the same for Blogger also.

Do note that while Microsoft lock you down from their software product and murdered other competitors, Google lock you down by controlling your information and probably will sensor some from you intentionally. You information is YOUR properties, but you have chosen to let google to "manage" (include search, index, cross link and others) for you. You can't find a button yet on the gmail to let you download your mail to local disk for safe keeping. May be this will be available one day. So, life is sucks and world is falling down when google down for just 5 min...
