Moldova riots

Our Moldovan brothers are struggling to overturn corrupt election results of the communist party, while CNN and other media talk about the influence of social networking in this matter. Their authorities already started a cyber counter-attack, blocking access to these web networking services.

Seems to me they are missing the whole point. It’s not about the social networks, it’s about people, and what people want – remember December 22nd, 1989, when Romania was facing a major turning point in it’s history. Would things be any different today, if we had Twitter? Doubt it.

My 2 euro cents.

P.S. Seems Romania gets the blame for what is happening. That’s a new one! :-)

it’s been a tough fight worth fighting
as we all drive along
betting on another day.

Later edit: I’m feeling gooood!

GMail is down. My domain has GMail on it’s mail server as well, so I am at this point left with Yahoo and MSN. Good thing Google Finance is still working, just look at that Google stock going down.

More news here.

May God help us all! :)

UPDATE: Google has posted the following on the gmail support site:

“We’re aware of a problem with Gmail affecting a number of users. This problem occurred at approximately 1.30AM Pacific Time. We’re working hard to resolve this problem and will post updates as we have them. We apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused”.

UPDATE: GMail is back on track. I guess we can still expect hickups since it’ still in BETA stage. Good job Google!
