Check the status of Google Apps
Google has a site where you can actually see if any of its Google Apps for consumer services as well as services for organizations is up running or otherwise.

You can check the status of the following google apps:
- Google Mail
- Google Calendar
- Google Talk
- Google Doc List
- Google Documents
- Google Spreadsheets
- Google Presentation
- Google Sites
- Google Video for Business
- Admin Control Panel

Like last march 10 when google mail was down. The Google Apps Status Dashboard showed the reason for the said problem and updates as to when the service is/will be available again

So if you are having problems with google apps, head on to Google Apps Status Dashboard and check if the problem is with your connection or with google.
