Even with a GMail outage, I’ll still take it over MS Outlook

Yep. It’s down. Image below via Google Apps Status.

corey-creed-twitterGMail is down! Ahhhh! People are freaking out all over the internets.

As a PC user, I’ll gladly take an occasional GMail outage over:

  • Outlook and waiting for messages to download
  • Upgrading my spam filter regularly.
  • Downloading Outlook upgrades via Windows download and rebooting my computer.
  • Paying for Outlook version upgrades every couple years
  • Random freezes and resource hogging.

And … it gave me time to write this brief blog post.

Thank you GMail ;-)
