Wow! I feel great. I'm starting my new career of NOT being in front of a computer 24/7, so this meant nothing to me! And that, my dear friends, is lovely. Oh, CL was down last night for about an hour.

FYI, if it goes down again you should try accessing it at https://mail.google.com/mail/h/ That's like their slimmed down version of Gmail, and seemed to work for me even when the regular gmail was down.

Yes and it's killing me. Good reminder not to depend on Gmail alone to store photos I might need in the near future.
