Google’s Broke
Oops April 26th, 2007 - By Haochi
Google is broken.
If you subscribe to the Google Analytics Blog, you will know that most of the posts this month are either about Google Analytics will be having a “routine maintenance” or having report delays. Not saying that Google can’t have maintenance, but why so often? Even the folks at Ask.com made fun of it.
Interestingly, one user report that Google Calendar’s got a quota limit. Congratulation, you’ve reached the End of the Internet. (by the way, they canceled the planned maintenance for Google Calendar)
Google autoSync failed
Sync with Google failed:calUserID:8768 sync() error. Google ServiceException:com.google.gdata.util.ServiceForbiddenException
message:calUserID:8768 You have hit Google’s quota limit.
Then Google lost many users’ settings for the Google Personalized Homepage and Gmail kept having some depressions (down time) as usual.
It is because…
- Things don’t always go as you wish they would
- Eric Schmidt unplugged the plug on the Google servers
- Or… (tell me what you think)

I hope that this is a big (or a small) update for the Google server. But if this is just trouble with the server i’m very sad about Google!
Let’s see!

I’m just happy they are finally saying something in the Analytics blog. There were a couple of times when it was 12 hours or more behind with no word on the blog. One time I submitted a trouble ticket, and then a delay notice popped up on the blog about 30 minutes later.
