Just this Tuesday I could observe, what happens when Google is down (their routers were throwing away packets from Prague peering). So, without further ado: - obviously, services like Search, Youtube, Gmail are unavailable. That includes searching from the address bar in your browser ;) - people, who have their DNS set to 8.8.8.8 should reconsider their settings, - too many web pages use assets hosted on Google CDN, including analytics or fonts, and when unavailable, the pages will load very slowly, waiting for timeouts from CDN. - Android phones will say, that Internet is unavailable, even if it is. Otherwise, everything is fine.
