…or more likely Nightmares.
I didn’t care much when I knew about the Gmail outage. I was at work with hundreds of stuff to do…
10 minutes later, I started to freak out, I thought about every web-application, account, subscription and contacts I use..Most of them (if not All) depend on my Gmail account. I even use Gmail for online file storage :$. I would literally die ‘virtually’ without it.*
Although the idea of Google owning us all (what I concluded from the freakig out) may annoy some, I still like Google. At least it united the world for a couple of hours for a good cause: Communication. That’s what we all humans are here for **…right?

Hi
After reading this, I thought I should share. Google gmail is still in beta version. it’s been on the market for more than three years. if it were reliable, the beta would’ve been gone.
Therefore, I do question its reliability when it comes to saving my emails or using it as an online storage. Unless the “beta” is a part of the product name, then it’s ok (but we both know, it’s not).
So back up your email, backup your files and be aware of the beta version.

Maybe I should backup 🙂
