For those who wondered why my site was down this morning...

Monday morning hit tech users hard when an apparent outage of several Google-related platforms hit several parts of the world. 

Beginning at 6:30 a.m. ET, Downdetector.com began to report outages of services connected to Alphabet, Inc, the parent company to Google and Youtube. Around 7 a.m., outages on Down Detector spiked. The outage appeared to impact Youtube, Google's Gmail service, its Google Docs platform, as well as Google Classroom.
