Google Goes Down Twice In As Many Days

Yesterday, Google suffered another outage, resulting in the search engine, YouTube and Gmail going down for more than two hours.

Some Gmail users saw error messages and had their messages bounced back.

Google’s status page said they were aware of the outage around 4:30pm E.T. adding: “The affected users are able to access Gmail, but are seeing error messages, high latency, and/or other unexpected behavior.”

The issues were finally resolved shortly before 7 p.m. ET, the company said. At their peak, they affected nearly 18,000 users, according to monitoring site Downdetector.

“Please rest assured that system reliability is a top priority at Google, and we are making continuous improvements to make our systems better,” Google said.

On Monday, several of Google’s services went down for about an hour, including Gmail, YouTube and Google Classroom.
