But I'm as surprised as anyone. But I shouldn't be, really. As the San Francisco Chronicle put it, “Because of the nature of technology, whether it’s Google's or someone else’s …You’re going to get bitten by the beast.” (as quoted at newsy.com) I wasn’t personally affected simply because I wasn’t using Google at the time.

See http://www.pallab.net/2005/11/03/google_is_down/ (a post from 2005). Also this failure was kind of localised. Most of asia wasnt affected. Well, I dont really read too much into this. Google does have loads of products and screw ups do happen. Ofcourse when you are google its only natural that they will get a lot of attention.

None of my contacts are show and even when I try to log into chat via gmail, it's the same problem .. Anyone else experiencing the same problem ?
