Is anyone else having problems with Google websites? I'm in the US, and all Google Services are really slow and quirky... Google.com, Gmail, Google Apps for your domain, even YouTube... It seems like everything running off a Google server is slow today! Other non-Google related websites are just fine.

The Apps Status Dashboard loads super slow too, but says everything is okay...

Here's an example of what's happening... After hitting "Refresh" several times, things eventually load, but very very slowly...

I can't get the GoogleOS blog to load at all...

Have you done a traceroute? What does it says?

I called my ISP because this has been a problem for over 2 hours now and I wanted to know if it was on their end or Google's... My ISP said it's on Google's end and that "Google is having a problem with their servers".

>> Have you done a traceroute? What does it says?

Yes, the first 5 hops are through my local ISP and are fine, then from 6 on: "Request timed out" down the line...

Doesn't say anything. Paste the trace.

Yeah we've been hosed here in Seattle since we got in this morning. Intermeittant pluses of connection have happened but something is seriously wrong in googleville.

Thank you for the confirmation! I hope Google gets this figured out soon... I've never seen an outage like this... ALL Google services!!

And it sucks...we just recently switched everyone over to Google Apps for our domain :(

No problem at all with Google. It seems to be your internet provider peering integra.net that has problems, not google. Don't know why you censored the traces IP for integra.

Bresnan Online, I live in Missoula, MT

Ugh, now I can't even get to the homepage at google. I'm pretty sure its not my ISP since all my other sites are loading just fine. Something is seriously wrong in googleville. I wish they would at least acknowledge that something is up.

I called our ISP again, and this time they've acknowledged a problem and said they're working on it and gave me a ticket #.

It's odd, but nothing else is effected...just Google services...
