Google Voice is down – Error 500
Google Voice is down – Error 500 Google voice is down with an Error 500: Internal Server Error An error 500 is a generic error message, given when no more specific message is suitable. Google voice is also not answering when you call your Google Voice number from a Google Voice connected phone – normally you get a menu with prompts to check Google Voice Mail and make calls. Apps like GrowlVoice are also not responding. The issue seems to be more than just the Google Voice website – the entire Google Voice system is actually down. Update After about 20 minutes of being down today Google Voice is back up again.

Google Thinks You’re Awesome
Google Thinks You’re Awesome if you are using Internet Explorer and download Google Chrome: I can’t say that I disagree.
Google Logout URL
If you’re looking for a URL to Log Out of Google, Google Plus, or any of Google’s Services, you have a few options. If you just want to Logout, use the following URL: https://accounts.google.com/Logout If you would like to logout and then redirect, add the continue parameter to the end of the URL. For example if you want to log out and then redirect to google.com, use this URL: https://accounts.google.com/Logout?&continue=http://www.google.com/
Google Docs: Share Outside My Organization (solved)
If you’re facing the problem with Google Docs where the “Users can share documents outside this domain” option doesn’t work, or the following issues, see the solution below on how to fix this. These are the problems reported by others about Share Google Docs Outside Your Organization: When I’m in the sharing settings in the document there is NO option to share out of organization. I disabled the option “Users can share documents outside this domain” several time ago and now, I reactivated it in order to share documents with users outside my domain. When I want to share any document with people outside the domain I am not able to get the option to do that. When viewing document share options, I can’t see the toolbar where I am asked to allow people outside the domain to view or edit the document. When I try to get a public link to the document, I only have the option to get it for people inside the domain. Control panel options are set properly but no change is performed in Google Docs. I have another google apps domain account where I’m able to do that. In that account I’ve never disabled the share with people outside the domain. I suspect the problem comes when you disable public sharing for the very first time and then you want to reactivate it again. I don’t have the option ‘Users can publish documents to the public internet’ available. I have multiple Google Domains, to … Continue reading

Google Search Lucky
Google’s “I’m Feeling Lucky” search in Google Chrome Do you want to use Google’s “I’m Feeling Lucky” search in Google Chrome? It’s easy using the custom search engines. In Google Chrome click the wrench icon and then choose prferences next click manage custom search engines Inser the string(s) below and a name (pretty much irrelevant) and they shortcut keyword you want to use. I use > Google Search Lucky Strings Standard “Im Feeling Lucky” Search http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&btnI=Im+Feeling+Lucky SSL Encrypted “Im Feeling Lucky” Search https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&btnI=Im+Feeling+Lucky Note: I’ve stripped out all items such as encoding and referrer to keep this as clean and simple as it can be. Now you can simply type in something like > Google Docs into your browser bar and have it go to the first result – which is most likely the right place.

Disable Google’s “Did you Mean”
If you’re tried of Google automatically rewriting your search queries, this will help. Case Study: When searching Google for “Linus Redhat” Google will automatically search instead for “Linux Redhat” and you will need to click the link for your original search exactly as you typed it. If you search for obscure things, like code snippets, this can be annoying The Fix: Append this to the end of your search string: &nfpr=1 So, for example you can use this string to search google from your browser’s custom search engines with “did you mean” disabled: http://www.google.com/search?q=%s&nfpr=1 It will still show “Did you mean” but it will not automatically change your query.
