Google has not been up for the last couple of hours, at least for me. Obviously the rest of my internet is working. On a pay per click scenario, they are losing lots right now. It makes me wonder..., how much does Google earn an hour in advertising? I'd Google it, but I can't. :eek:

According to techxav.com (http://techxav.com/2009/03/15/how-much-does-each-20-notable-tech-companies-earns-a-second-google-691/):
$607.33/second.

Maybe the better question is:

How much money does Google lose when CB&B can't access it? ;):p

It's up. I just searched my own name, and wow... Over twenty pages. Who knew?

Google knows everything!
603 bucks a second...that's insane. 52 million a day.

I replicated the problem I had at home yesterday on my computer at work today. I was unable to access Google by clicking on any links, toolbar buttons, or typing in the URL manually. All I would get is "connecting". Reopening a new browser window would make no difference. Once I cleared all my cookies, it worked ok. I hate clearing my cookies. I'm lazy and love being automatically logged into sites like DBR.
Anyways, that's that. Thanks for links folks provided yesterday.
