Is anyone else having Google Talk issues (like it being totally unavailable via Gmail) or is it just me?

Nope, Mine is up and running.

Likely just you… Mine is up just fine.

it comes and goes, sometimes. Has it been out for an extended period of time?

Are you behind a proxy server at work, or do you have a direct connection to the Internet? Sometimes anal-compulsive network administrators block the port it uses. Otherwise, try signing out of google altogether, then sign in again.

It’s been out all morning. I thought it was just me at first, but with it being out all morning, I thought I’d check. It usually runs fine at work, but they randomly block interesting things (and unblock them the next day) so who knows.

Thanks everyone!
