Whops … Google adsense website is down .. did it got hacked or did something horrible happened .. so far there is no scheduled maintenance the website just went down and is now displaying a message in almost all languages stating

“The Google AdSense website is temporarily unavailable. Please try back later.
We apologize for any inconvenience.”

Its not only adsense but the adwords website is down but for that they have stated its a scheduled downtime with a statement saying :

“The AdWords account interface is temporarily unavailable due to system maintenance. AdWords is expected to be down from approximately 10:00 AM until 3:30 PM PDT on June 21, 2008. Please note that your campaigns will be running normally during this short period of downtime, which only affects your account management pages. We apologise for any inconvenience.”

So this means they were fixing some stuff at adwords but as adwords is linked with adsense so something terrible must have happened and the global sites are now down. This means the advertisers have no idea whats going on with there campaign and the publishers have no idea if there adsense is going to pay of for the ad clicks seems like a mess. Last time Google Analytic servers crashed and some of the data was not recoverable so in this case if something like this happens it means tons of law suits and of course a drop on the Google stocks.

So what happened with the big G too much data to handle ….
