Re: Why is google so slow lately (2011) I Have A Name 6/5/11 9:04 AM I can vouch for this. It's getting ABSURD lately. I'm waiting 10, 15, 20, 30 seconds, having to reload a page multiple times.

Re: Why is google so slow lately (2011) MaciejP 6/8/11 5:54 AM I have the same problem since a few days.

Re: Why is google so slow lately (2011) Use Bing 10/28/11 1:28 PM I have been a fan of Google for a long time but they are just completely wack now!

Re: Why is google so slow lately (2011) D.K.G 11/3/11 10:43 AM This has been a problem with me also. Obviously Google is not fixing it. I will change my search engine. Its way too frustrating and its not connectivity.
