Gmail also did this to emails coming from Google, in late December

(Screenshot here: http://geek-is-cool.blogspot.com/2008/12/google-as-spam.html )

At least it defaulted to everything bad rather than everything good.

I think Google is a big enough entity that they can afford to have people working on a saturday, so it probably wasnt an issue :)

I never even noticed the glitch... I seem to use search less and less now, just dive straight into book marked sites.

'the URL of '/' was mistakenly checked in as a value to the file'

that's kinda drastic, isn't it? They clearly need Tim O'Rielly to publish a book on 'How to Configure Your Empire of World Domination'.

it wasn't for an hour. hardly lasted half hour for me. i appreciate google for fixing it so quickly, especially since it was a saturday morning.
