I've been trying to access it for about 20 minutes and keep getting a "502 Server Error"...

Kind of sucks, I've got an important email in there I need to reply to ASAP.

Anyone else having issues?

P.S. If this helps anyone, you can grab your contacts from here if you don't already have them, and email them from somewhere else... http://www.google.com/contacts

  Same here, I'm getting emails on my phone...
  
  Unfortunately I've got like a 500+ reply to write and that's a pain on a blackberry keyboard.

Yeah.

I think this happens now and again.

Plus they have a tendency to miss-place some of the Google documents they keep.

I've had Gmail since it came out and I don't think I've ever seen this before. DOS, anyone?

They're doing most of us a favor.

How much time do many of us (myself included) waste in there?

  Thanks Gmail
  
  I guess it depends... I do a lot of business through Gmail. So, my time spent there is generally pretty productive.
  
  I guess it's time for a backup plan... I can always send emails from a hosted domain but I've got most of my contacts saved in Gmail.
  
  On the bright side, If Gmail being down temporarily is my only complaint for the day... It'll be a good day.

  I've got an important email in there I need to reply to ASAP.
  
  Yes, gmail is having problems. However, though I may have some important emails there, nothing is so critical it can't wait a while.
  
  I think we get carried away with the immediacy of the internet and are quick to jump to "emergency" mode.
  
  When I was raising my sons we had a signal for "emergencies" to avoid my panic at an urgent phone call of "we need help". The code was "there's no blood but" which qualified the emergency as manageable.
  
  If there's no blood, having to wait won't cause too much damage.

Mine was spotty as of a few minutes ago but working at the moment... That's what we get for relying on webmail but I love webmail and the access anywhere mentality - and all that space Google gives us. ;-)

  Don't worry folks, it will be up again shortly, as soon as the FBI and CIA have copied everything they want.
