What's up with Gmail? [More:]Just noticed they've made some minor appearance changes (the 'More Actions' dropdown box is a different color; so is the "Your message has been sent" notice; the full email address shows up in the Firefox tab now).

And earlier today, Gmail Notifier stopped working for me. It doesn't, um, notify me when I get mail. And if I hover over any account, it says I have 0 messages and am using 0% of my allowance of 0MB.

Is it an add-on problem, or is Google doing something funky? And how do I know if I have email without having to log in to all 4 accounts?
My Gmail is being weird, too. I click my bookmark link, and half the time, it gets stuck loading in this link: http://mail.google.com/mail/#inbox

If I delete the #inbox, then it will load.

My notifier was acting funny today, too.

Mine's being odd too. I generally use it via Thunderbird, but it will always save a copy of my replies sent via T-bird in the webmail setup. But it's stopped doing that today.

mine's been funky for a day or two. You know how when it's slow and you get the black text that says "LOADING" in the upper left of the screen, then the red box with "loading" in the upper right, then it opens? Mine flipped through those two loading screens about a dozen times before opening up finally last night.

Yay. Safety in numbers.

They are making it faster.

Nuh-uh.

It's also doing this weird thing where with every keystroke, the status bar registers something. It's almost like an email EKG.

I haven't noticed any problems, but I only check it a couple times a day.

Google books was very slow yesterday, but today it seems to have regained its usual rigor (too bad, since I really really needed it yesterday, and was forced to make a fool of myself at work).

I checked my gmail on the web and noticed that it's not saving the mail in conversations - the sent mail is in the sent folder. The incoming mail is still in conversations though, but I'm used to seeing it with the replies following on. Weird.

No arse, they are making it suck-er.

And they seem to have made it impossible to get rid of Google Chat in the web interface. Attention Google: DO NOT WANT.

Glad I don't use it.

I've been randomly losing emails. Yay.

I've only been able to view the simplified HTML version on the web lately (not sure what it's actually called). So lots of people are having problems, but they're all different...

did you get it, or has the boogie man taken it away?
