Is Facebook Down? Yes. Outage Has Lasted An Hour And Counting (techcrunch.com)
9 points by 10dpd on June 1, 2012 | hide | past | favorite | 7 comments


Facebook is working just fine for me. I made sure to check various friends' profiles (timelines) and various secret groups, as well as my own profile and my home page, and it is all working fine as of 7:38pm CDT in the United States. Moreover, no one is talking about an outage among my friends, and there don't seem to be any big gaps in the times noted for various replies.


What is also interesting is that the Facebook comments box at the bottom of the article displays a

'This webpage is not available. The connection to www.facebook.com was interrupted.' error.

Wonder how many sites this is going to impact..


Working fine for me, 13 minutes after the link was posted.


I can't log in right now. But someone else on my network (who was already logged in) reports no problem.


My loading of Facebook has been incredibly slow over the last hour, with it timing out several times.


Yep, working here, but verrrrrrrry slow.


It's definitely up for me.
