Update: It’s back up.
Original Article: Facebook appears to be down, at least for many people. We’re seeing a lot of chatter about it on Twitter.
As Twitter user DJDearest says, "Facebook is down. Productivity at offices across the world just went up 356%."
We don’t know if it has anything to do with the recent "Anonymous" attacks, but Facebook did recently take down their Facebook Page. Although, Twitter took down their account too, and given Twitter’s reputation for downtime, you would think it would be down also.
Here is a sample of what some other people have to say about it on Twitter:
It’s very unusual for Facebook to go offline like this, unlike say Twitter. No Fail Whales to look at though.
Mashable speculates that this is tied to a rolout of redesigned brand pages.
I wonder how much money Facebook is losing while this is going on.
