Gmail for Business works from my imap client (postbox) but not from the web site. So I guess their web interface is down - not the backend mail engine.

Is this affecting Chrome as well? Looks like it might be a bigger problem. It just crashed for three guys in our office within a few seconds of each other. Edit: Nobody was using Gmail at any point.

It crashed for me also. I wonder if it's because I have the offline gmail app for Chrome installed?

Probably not the time to rub people's face in it, but I host my own mail server because of crap like this. Thread from the other day: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4886236

Yup. I'm entirely too reliant on Google products myself. My business not so much but personally I am pretty reliant on them.

It's even crashing on iOS! Guess its a "never" situation there right now.
