Google suffered a second technical snag in a month causing interrupts in its popular Gmail service. The disruption continued for two hours as the users couldn’t access contacts. Previously, Gmail was inaccessible for an hour due to the server upgradation.
This type of interrupt came as a jolt to the internet giant, who has been faced by serious competitions from Microsoft and Yahoo in providing quality service. The Twitter microblogging site was flooded with this break off news with numerous comments from the users.
“A problem with Google Contacts caused many Gmail users to experience slowness and degraded service for about an hour today (Thursday),” Google said in a statement. “Mail was back to full speed for everyone around 8 am Pacific and the issue affecting Contacts was resolved shortly after. We’re sorry for the inconvenience.”
