Down here as well, and the above link should be google.com/appstatus

2Personman:
Thanks for correcting. It's either without www and with one S, or with www and SS. Strange..

Ilya: That's so weird...

http://www.google.com/appsstatus#hl=en works

Oh interesting, it's actually the trailing slash that makes your link not work, not the lack of www

funny how nearly everyone is still considered a small subset of users.

down here in Santa Barbara too... frustrating.

I don't think this is a small subset of users anymore :-) the iGoogle gadget works though, also Google Talk is reporting about new messages.

nevermind, it was a small subset yesterday-- today it is a "majority". i guess that's technically correct
