Something for Google’s birthday.

As you may or may not be aware, this past Monday Gmail was offline for about 100 minutes. While that may not sound like a big deal, the Internets came alive during that 100 minutes with a kind of frenzy not seen since Twitter went offline for a few hours last month.

Three days later, we look back at one of the darkest parts of a section of an afternoon.

Enjoy.

More on the Gmail outage.

Starring & improvised by Patrick Flynn, Andre Meadows, & Burl Moseley.
