Hacker News Reader

what is the point of telling hacker news? those that use gmail will know it's down, those that don't, don't care.

If it was down (which it's not) I would like to know. My email is pinged to my Blackberry. There is no way for me to know that Gmail is not working unless I am told (otherwise I would just think that I had no new email).

if it was down, you would have no new email.
