Google Falling Apart?

Valentine's Day: AdWords reporting was down for 10 or 11 hours.
Feb 18: Google News had a variety of problems resulting in messages of "Please try again shortly. We apologize that this section is currently unavailable."

Has Google run out of space or bandwidth? Do they have a virus? Have they fired too many key staff? Are interns in charge?

Hopefully these two outages in the space of a few days are just a coincidence!

UPDATE: On President's Day, phone support for Google AdWords were on holiday (unlike most of the USA), but instead of a message stating such, you were either stuck on hold permanently, or you were connected to a fax machine.

And today, Feb 24, Gmail was down for a few hours.

I must say, a blog that is about a search engine company might consider including... you guessed it... a search.
