April 12th, May 17th outages planned


A Heads Up About AdWords DowntimeSaturdays are great.  Even if you hold down a second job, have housework, errands, or whatever, it's nice to get away from the Monday-to-Friday grind.  Now, so that your Saturday won't include an unpleasant surprise, an announcement: AdWords accounts will be inaccessible for four hours.

Planned maintenance will keep people from signing in or tinkering with anything between 10 AM to 2 PM PDT on April 12th.  But on the Inside AdWords blog, "Blake" promised everyone, "Your campaigns will continue to run as usual."

Blake even gave a heads up about when future downtime should occur.  "AdWords system maintenance typically occurs on the second Saturday of each month during the above times - although in May it is planned to occur one week later than usual, on May 17th, due to Mother's Day," he wrote.  (And let that serve as a double reminder, lest you forget Mother's Day.)

That's about it, then.  Have a nice Saturday, and a good Friday and Sunday, too, while you're at it.
