Facebook… down down down

Earlier this evening, Facebook started exhibiting some strange behaviour… shortly afterwards Twitter began trending with “Facebooks” (why not Facebook?!), and it is currently trending with ‘Facebook isn’t working’, ‘DNS Failure’, ‘Mark Zuckerberg’ and ‘Service Unavailable’ in it’s top 10.

You can occasionally get in and do stuff, but generally, this is what can be seen – it’s a global problem… interesting to see how people react. It’s rarely been down for this long – Twitter has a bit of a reputation for the #failwhale (although apparently #newtwitter will help, I haven’t seen it yet)… so…  Funniest tweet: “@Atrion84: Oh no Facebook is down… haha so many farms sit there dying… lol”
