Facebook
went down this morning for all of 20 minutes and the (social) world came to a
literal standstill. Many users were left in shock before quickly recovering and
rushing to Twitter to complain about the outage. “Sorry, something went wrong,”
the error message read, “We’re working on getting this fixed as soon as we
can.”
The problem was fixed and the platform is now operational. In a statement, Facebook apologized for the worldwide outage but did not give the reason for it.
“Earlier
this morning, we experienced an issue that prevented some users from posting to
Facebook for a brief period of time. We resolved the issue quickly, and we are
now back to 100%.
We’re
sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.” This is not the first time
the giant social network had gone down. Back in the year 2010, Facebook went
down for a record two and a half hours
