Within a period of one month, Google Inc's web based service Gmail suffered its second high profile technical problem. I saw a message appearing on the top of Gmail that read "Gmail is temporarily unable to access your contacts. You may experience issues while this persists." Before this there was an outage of Google services for which Google said "the outage was due to some of its routers becoming overloaded during a routine upgrade". They even called it a big deal on their official blog. Then it was last Tuesday that Google News was not available for nearly two hours.
It is really surprising that Google has undergone such outages so frequently. We generally do not expect players like Google to be down and out. I believe that Google is one of the most used website that is presently available. Google's GMail has millions of users attached to it, it also has lots of other services to offer to almost all type of people. But as an ardent fan of Google I personally believe that such mishaps do happen and should just be ignored. But we cannot say the same for Google as it is the one which has accustomed us to almost 100% up time. I firmly believe that they would rectify the little flaw that might have just crept in and would be back to their helping self pretty soon.
