Google shut down (for 15 minutes) for whatever reason

How the fuck do you run one of the most popular websites on the planet, the #1 search engine, and your site is down for 15 minutes? I start shitting my pants after 5 if one of my ecommerce sites is down. Obviously, they don't give a shit.

Googling stopped for 15 minutes on Saturday. The world's leading internet search engine shut down from 6:45 to 7 p.m. eastern time, according to Google spokesman David Krane.

"It was not a hacking or a security issue," said Krane. He said the problem was related to the DNS, or Domain Name System, though Krane did not elaborate. The DNS translates domain names for computers.

They really do suck balls.
