‘The Net dies without Google’
p2pnet news view | Products:- When p2pnet logged on before the crack of dawn, this morning, Google was going up and down like a yo-yo and when things finally settled down, the Canada news pages — and maybe others — had taken on a new look.
“Many people found Google’s search site was extremely slow or inaccessible Thursday, and other reports pointed to troubles with other properties including YouTube, Gmail, Google Analytics, Google Maps, Google Docs, AdSense, and Blogger,” says CNet News.
And, “The internet dies without Google,” the story has Tadiera twittering.
“Can’t get to my bank website because it’s waiting on ‘google-analytics.com’. This is made of lame.”
What’s made of lame is Gargle.
The internet dies without it?
heh

Google Analytics biggest single cause of slow loading pages for me

“The Internet dies without Google.”
Uh, nope. The Internet *dies* because people are scared they might learn something they didn’t want to know about Gays, or see something “icky”.
The Internet *dies* because it’s allowed people re-create the vibrant “public domain” and shared cultural-space that should have been there in the first place, but our Corporate overlords don’t want us to have.
The Internet *dies* ultimately because we’re too apathetic to fight all attempts to “regulate” it (up to, and including, hamfisted efforts at “Net Neutrality” which will just backfire anyway.)
But yeah, Google-analytics sucks.
