Google's messaging service, called Talk, used by millions of users around the world, has been having serious problems since 12:40 this morning and, for now, Google has not found a solution to it since it does not find the origin of the difficulties. Update: at 16:50 p.m. the Google Talk service has been restored.
Many users, the vast majority, they are not able to connect to the service and, some others, if they can connect, but cannot send and receive any type of message. Therefore, the isolation is almost total.
The Google offices have confirmed that there are problems and that for a few hours now, they have been trying to reestablish the Talk service. If you want to know first-hand in which phase the possible solution is, you can access this link official Google. Here, the company constantly updates the measures they are taking and the most important data. ç
We hope that Talk will work correctly again soon, since there are many users who use it both personally and at work ... and, as we have indicated before, the people who They use Google Talk in the millions around the world. In addition, this will serve to check the efficiency of Google when having problems.
Do you have these problems? Has it caused you some major problems? Tell us what you think about what happens and what you think about it ... For me, personally, it has made a "break" in my day to day.
Just comment that Google Talk is nothing more than a Google client for an open service made up of dozens or hundreds of server services, called Jabber / XMPP. The Jabber public network has many servers (jabber.org, jabberes.org, im.wordpress.com, lavabit.com, gmx.com), of which talk.google.com is only one.
All users can talk to each other, you don't need a google account to talk to someone who uses "google talk", that's the grace, it is a decentralized and open system.
