According to numerous news sources and reports it appears Google suffered widespread outage affecting many of its online services today.
Most Google properties were inaccessible to users across the U.S. and worldwide from about 10:45 a.m. until about 12:20 p.m. EDT. People from coast-to-coast and as far as China, Australia, and France were all impacted.
The outage, quickly dubbed #googlefail by Twitter users, shut down everything from Gmail to the Google.com home page. Google News, Google Reader, and YouTube were unavailable, as were Google Analytics, Maps, and Docs. Some services were loading very slowly and only functioning minimally, while others were altogether down.
The problems according to the news have been resolved.
