Anyone currently trying to get to Gmail will see

gmail down 9 1 09 (http://www NULL.rj-diamond NULL.com/alex/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/gmaildown9109 NULL.jpg)

     No formal explanation has been released of of yet. If you need to access your Google Email, then as of now, just keep trying every so often. 

**Note: For myself and all other Tech’s out there, unless the Tech you know directly works for Google, there isnt much we can do.  So for all those calling your local tech now (or me) asking them “why is Gmail not working” and “how long will it take for us to fix it”, we don’t know.
