Google Hangouts Is Down


Read {count} times since 2020

Again, one of Google’s service is down. This time it’s Google Hangouts also known before ad Google Talk. Google Sheets are down too.

The downtime of these services started from 17 March 9:45 PM IST. I noticed the Internal Server Errors when connecting to Google server by Pidgin messenger. I retried again and again, but the problem still poped up. I went to Twitter and found out, I wasn’t the only one that experienced this problem.

The Apps Status Dashboard of Google states that it’s a know error with description :

We're investigating reports of an issue with Google Talk. We will provide more information shortly.

Let’s hope it comes back up and doesn’t happen again.

Update

Google Hangouts, Google Sheets, Google Talk has been restored at 18 March 12:58 AM IST.
