Gmail outage on Tuesday was not only an inconvenience that it calls into question – again – Gmail Fail
Gmail fell Tuesday, many users found themselves without access to their e-mail for nearly two hours. Once Google had set the mess, the company said in a blog on the origin of the blackout was overloaded servers. Sound familiar? Google gave a similar explanation in May, after a widespread outage left 14 percent of Google users around the world lack access to many services research firm.
But despite previous failures, many people still believe in the reliability of Google and the confidence that their data will always be there. PC World contributing editor Harry McCracken, for example, has kicked himself yesterday for not downloading a backup of his e-mails using Gmail functionality offline or with a mail client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird.
In fact, the failure of yesterday did not affect Gmail users who have used e-mail client, since these programs are based on different servers in the electronic version of Gmail Web. But even if the user based on the old e-mail clients have lost access to their e-mail yesterday, they have been able to access archived messages with vital information from customers e-mail can save the postings on your hard drive. Anyway, you were better off yesterday with a client e-mail by the Web-only access to Gmail. Source pcworld.com
