The sky is falling !!
Its 10:42 pm PST on Sep 05 and Google has been down for the last few minutes. I am unable to reach any of its services under google.com domain. Blogger.com still works but no search queries are going through. What Why When ? Any clues ?
I may be too silly to jump on this but can't see google(of all domains) go down.
Updates
10:56 pm : It's still not up. No word of google being down at technorati. Is it just for me ? Should I sleep now or what ?
10:59 pm : Gmail works but not Google.com. A friend on GTalk tells me he is able to query google's malaysian version and international one also. Its probably my ISP. It has been couple of years since I've done such frantic updates to posts.
11:08 pm : Google.com works like sweet now. No re-starting of PC, not even the browser. Still no idea on what why & when. Anyway, who cares now.
11:17 pm : Not working again. What the heck ?
11:18 pm : Works.
11:30 pm : Nope.

i wonder how on earth google handles so many hits a day.
if a guy/gal accesses google.com from russia or india, does the server return the same index.html or index.php file to him/her?
