Does obitalk.com go down frequently?
erkme73:
It's not often that I try to get into Obitalk.com, but the last few times I tried, I had very, very slow responses from the site. In fact, today, I had to wait over an hour before it would respond.
I just want to make sure it's not something I'm doing wrong (all other sites come up just fine).
Just today I was (reluctantly) setting up Hangouts on a new tablet - and it kept erroring out. I tried for over an hour, even resetting the device. Later I find out that Google's Talk and Hangout servers were down for three hours. Never fails. Probably my fault.

This appears to be the result of a spike in traffic. I haven't seen anything like this before.

I have never seen obitalk.com completely down. Today it was severely overloaded, I suspect from tons of OBi GV users hitting the site to find out why their GV was out.
Just wait till GV kills off XMPP. I suspect most OBi/GV users haven't even heard about the upcoming end of XMPP. And when GV pulls the plug, they are going to come here wanting to know what happened.

Actually, I remember Obitalk completely down, lasted like a half day. But it was rather unusual.
It will go down for a while once XMPP is gone; I guess that will look like DDoS. :D

It ought to be possible for Google, instead of just pulling the plug on XMPP access to GV on 14 May, to leave it running for a month or two after that but respond to all call attempts with a recorded announcement such as "Google has withdrawn this method of placing Google Voice calls. Please see www.google.com/xmpp for more information."
