Facebook down?

[hob]

Hello everyone,

just wondering if anyone else is having trouble getting on the old FB. I'm sure we've all got better things to be doing, but... well... I don't!

Firefox 3 RC3 simply says "Document contains no data", for me...

 

[Eraserhead]

Works for me.

 

[bartelby]

Worked fine for me 2 minutes ago...

 

[Peace]

Appears fine to me.

 

[vanmacguy]

Down for me in Canada.

 

[Killyp]

Down for me too...

 

[hob]

Must just be me then...

I'm on Virgin Media broadband and in London... perhaps I'll just reboot me modem or sommit...

Actually, Facebook's sputtering. Some pages not loading. How strange.

 

[Much Ado]

Down for me.

I can get in now, but was having trouble earlier today.
Actually had to do work, instead.

 

[Eraserhead]

It has had a few problems after posting originally however...

It made the front page in my school newspaper.

It's back up, I think. Safari definitely feels a bit snappier.

Several times extremely late at night, I've noticed significant slow downs. It's either maintenance or just a slow server serving the request, but every so often things come to a crawl.

Also, some app developers use some shady methods to try and increase performance of their own apps at the expense of extra burden on the FB servers. I believe it's only the images that are affected and not the whole page, but FB does have some issues to work out.

A couple of weeks ago it kinda starting slowing down for me. Its really getting on my nerves

 

[timsutcliffe]

It was important enough for the BBC to report:
