Superstar

As of about 9:15 AM EST, Google News went down worldwide. Access to groups, Gmail, Google-hosted blogs, Google Ads, and Google Ad manger all stopped functioning.

Immediately, Twitter lit up with the same question: Is Google News down for everybody? The short answer is yes, Google News—and everything else—is down for everybody. There is a fair amount of panic around the world now—much more freaky than swine flu!

It was bigger than Google News.
Initial pings on Google.com show packet losses in New York, San Francisco, Chicago, Australia, France, China and other locales. The outages ran across all of Google’s properties such as YouTube, Gmail, Google Analytics, Google Maps and Google Docs.
