The mirrors hosting www.google.com/.co.uk went down. http://google.co.uk (without the www) was up. Seems to be working now though.

A convo I had with my friend on Google

Him: Hey
Hey
When I visit Google I freeze up - can you check if it's working?
Brrrrrrrr - maybe next time you visit Google you should wear a sweater.

Google keeps going on and off for me.

I have to resort to using alltheweb.com
it far superior for finding porn on the images section but not for information.

Well, if anyone's having trouble with google, allow me to reccomend Cthuugle (http://www.cthuugle.com/) instead.

Not that I'm trying to open in your mind harrowing vistas into the deeper and darker layers of perception or anything.

LOL well, AskJeeves tends to be "family safe", I think.

Sort of SearchEngine Lite.

Google isn't down.

They are upgrading their servers, changing pathways, deleting and merging MySQL databases etc etc.

AskJeeves used to be much better; it's no longer that useful anymore, IMHO, because of the way it retreives searches. I use Google at least once a day... I don't even pay attention to other search engines anymore.
