Gmail 'Service Disruption' Causing Headaches

Google-based email service seems to be jammed today, with folks reporting delays.

Gmail users are having the virtual version of a traffic jam on the Internet this morning. Delays and slowdowns are the norm for many users trying to send and receive mail or access Google Drive.

Google is reporting a "service disruption" for Google Mail and Google Drive and Google Documents. There is also an outage reported for their Admin Control Panel/API.

If there's comfort in numbers, then take solace. There are many other email users like yourself pumping the send button and getting delayed or no response. From Seminole Heights to FishHawk Ranch, Gmail is KO'd mail for many.
