Oh well, gmail still kicks most anything else IMO... I HATED Hotmail and Yahoo.
 
I'm not having any trouble with gmail, it could be that the particular server you are on is having trouble.
 
Interesting... according to the Google Trend I linked, quite a few people suddenly started having this problem. But not all. Hmm...
 
You should find something better to do Rach, seriously. This is beyond dorky.

Now if you will excuse me, I have a final exam to take in 30.
 
My gmail is working. Maybe you aren't.
