No, it's not just you. Starting Tuesday night, Pacific time, YouTube was down for many users. The failure seems to have started around 6:15 pm, which makes it a very long breakdown for such an important site.

The company is well aware of the problem and sends its updates on Twitter. The account started responding to tweets reporting the crash about an hour ago and has been meticulously responding to numerous user reports since.

YouTube does not often encounter any downtime, which makes Tuesday's outage quite noticeable. We've contacted YouTube to find out what's causing the failure and will update this story when we know more.

Update from 8 pm Pacific: Google confirms that YouTube is back online and should work again for all users.
