Google, the internet search and advertising titan and other related products including maps, suffered a rare outage overnight.
The search engine was, according to outage tracking website Downdetector, down for more than 40,000 US users around 9.20 pm Eastern time, while users in the UK, Australia and Singapore also reported problems.
A number of other products owned by Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG) (Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG)) under the Google umbrella, including Google Photos, Google Maps, Google Drive, Google Duo, etc, were also affected by the outage, though services seem to be back up on Tuesday morning.
The Google app status dashboard, however, did not reflect an outage, and Google has not issued a statement.
Downdetector tends to track outages from user-submitted errors on its platform as well as other status reports from a variety of sources.
Users took to Twitter to mock the outage, with Google search unavailable, and #googledown was trending on Twitter.
Some posted screenshots of error messages and others joked about trying to search on Google to check if the search engine was down.
