In the end, almost two hours in length third largest e-mail service Gmail world, the search engine and advertising company Google Tot “We understand your pain,” the blog Besbris Director David to Gmail.
Overloaded system is responsible for the failure, said the responsible engineer Ben Treynor later in the same place. They took a small part of the mail server servicing network – in fact work. Usually traffic is different from other servers. For previous changes to the servers forward requests they unexpectedly give way to more Rush.
Treynor recently announced a package of emergency measures. He did not promise it will never happen again, but only: “These events should be primarily characterized by their rarity. Critics accuse Google to have voted for the protection of bad when action: North American users found the default middle of the day.
Many of them will be clear by now how much they rely on the service company. Google has become a separate universe. First of all, search engines – which finally reported decreases. With Google you can not only pages but also photos, videos, maps, news, blogs, and looking for more. You can write documents and spreadsheets and manage to look for a browser “Google Chrome” surf through “Latitude” close friends and now has an operating system is developed.
Nothing is not so. In return, the company collects data from its users. For their surfing habits, their content-mail contacts. So, Google can make real traffic profiles. But most of all: more than 85 percent of search queries from Germany to send to Google. It is, as do 85 per cent of German consumers turn to television only a channel. Or take 85% of newspaper readers, only a sheet. It does not matter where the information.
Therefore, I publicly asked the question whether, even without Google. On August 1, blogging invitation to give a week of Google and its services. (Www.eine ohne.de week) it will not happen without alternatives should not be the objective sober living from the Internet. Therefore, there are opportunities to learn elsewhere. Such gatherings are times when the timetable.
It seems that it is difficult to maintain its independence. The opinions of the readers are not only positive. In addition to positive responses, there were very quite. And there are even violent opposition. Some people seem to live without Google is now able to. One commentator even described as “quite vergooglet.
Of course, the group never has thus become important if the results are not useful, its services are not attractive. However, there are concerns on such statements. They show how Google has become part of everyday life not to show the areas which are not eligible.

Google took quite cynical. So the vice-chairman said recently that in the end, each volunteer search on Google. This is true. But the group is obviously the desire of “voluntary”, which is rather a function call. Who installed as a free browser Firefox, Google is the search box in advance. It is easy to use that. But it is very wise use of our laziness.
Therefore urge you to try at least once. How good or bad it is successful, many readers are described here. However, many complain that they are calculated to provide an email address, Google is not willing.
