Top of the front page in less than a minute. What does it say about us that our first response is to rush over to HN?

Took the words out of my mouth. I suppose that the logic is "hey, I wonder if it's just us... surely someone on HN will complain the instant that things go south, better check there first." Checking twitter never occurs to me...

Whenever I'm looking for real time information, the first thing I do is type search.twitter.com into chrome, hit tab to autocomplete into a search command, and search some keywords. Highly recommended! Also works if you're curious if an earthquake just occurred in your general area.

My coming to HN wasn't to see about Gmail, but because I couldn't waste time reading email at the moment.
