15-1-2008: The day Google went down?

 we are sorry….

We are sorry (served from sorry.google.com :) )

Currently all satellite images on Google maps, and ALL sites that use Google Maps (like ours),  are down.

Not that it’s a huge issue: the street view still works. But still: This is the first time that I can remember that (part of) a google service is completley down, for all users. It also shows how we just assume stuff like this always works (and how the all the web 2.0 mashups are dependent on their data suppliers…)
