Google Apps Status Dashboard
March 13, 2009 by Jimson Lee
The week ending Friday March 13th was not a good one for email providers in the cloud.
On Tuesday, an 30 minute outage prevented some Google email users from accessing their Gmail accounts around 2am Pacific time. By Wednesday, there were even some reports of the outage still affecting a small group of users.
Andrew Kovacs of Google refused to comment on the specifics of the outage.
On Wednesday, Hotmail had numerous reports of “Server Busy” errors. Microsoft simply responded with a post on their site that the email service was having “login issues”.
That’s two outages for major email service providers, and this doesn’t include the security flaw from Google documents this past week.
The good news is Google has now provided a status dashboard. The services listed includes Google Mail, Calendar, Talk, Docs list, Documents, Spreadsheets, Presentations, Sites (for web sites), Video for business, and the Admin control panel.

There is one thing missing… a Google Adsense status update!
