Gmail is experiencing intermittent outages, mobile apps appear unaffected (updated)

Google’s Gmail email service is currently experiencing intermittent outages. The service seemed to have been down for a large percentage of users, but it is now once again working for some users. Many users are still reporting that it is still down for them. For those who are still having issues accessing Gmail on the web, we’ve been able to access Gmail via Google’s mobile apps.

Update: Google just updated its Apps Status Dashboard (above) to notify users that it is investigating the Gmail service disruption and will provide more details soon.

Also, as seen below, Google alerted users that Google Drive also experienced service disruptions this afternoon, but the issues were apparently resolved within three minutes of updating the Apps Status Dashboard.
