Webmaster Central Site Verify Down

I encountered a problem a week or so ago with the Google webmaster central offering when attempting to verify an existing site of mine. A week or so passes and I log back in with the intention of re-verifying the site. Only now I receive an error alert stating that the system is experiencing problems with the verification of some of my sites. Is it just me I wonder? Well a quick search indicates that Andrew Girdwood was experiencing the same problem 10 days ago. But there is no mention of this problem on the webmaster central blog.

As Andrew mentions, Google do seem to struggle with technical issues on some of their offerings every now and again. Blogger was where I always encountered issues though it does seem to be more robust nowadays.

I’m sure that there is a bug in gmail …sometimes it alerts me with a message stating that my (brand new, not deleted at all) email is in my deleted folder and will not appear in my sent folder until it is undeleted (or something like that). That aside, I’m still a big fan of gmail.
