Gmail Vowel Fail!
Google seriously has began failing at April Fool's Jokes. They've got this:
At 6:01 am Pacific Time, during routine maintenance at one of our datacenters, the frontend web servers in that particular datacenter started failing to render the letter 'a' for a subset of users. As error rates escalated, the strain spread to other datacenters. We worked quickly to avoid a cascading failure of the entire alphabet by implementing a stopgap solution that limited the damage to the letters 'a,' 'e,' 'i,' 'o,' and 'u.' As a result, we're experiencing Gmail’s first temporary vowel outage. (We’re still investigating whether the letter 'y' is impacted and will post an update here shortly.)

Ashraf HZWait, this happened to the emails within Gmail as well? That would be unforgivable 😛

Kaustubh KatdareNo, it was only on the Gmail login page. I guess the Google Apps pages were not affected.

lalHmm. Thank God, the mails are not affected!
