Where else to post information and/or frustration, other than with a reliable source and all your best online friends? I'm just sayin'....

I'm just going to assume that all my friends are dead until Facebook comes back.

They just fixed it. And now BWW can go back to being dead.

But how will I know what my friends are eating for dinner tonight?!

I don't care, I have Twitter. I only feel disconnected and ill-informed if Twitter goes down, and because Twitter goes down far more frequently, it doesn't upset me very much when it happens. :3

Mine's not fixed!

I still can't get on Facebook.

I saw a great tweet: "Facebook is still down!!! If anyone knows that weird girl I went to camp with, please tell her I said Happy Birthday!!!"

Nor can I.

I can get on.

Btw, that post of yours cracked me up tf4.

This would be a great time to get my third English paper of the week done. Instead, I'm watching The Biggest Loser on Hulu.

Reg, that's hilarious!

Excellent time management skills, BellatrixxLestrangee.

I guess there's no point in trying to sign on to FB now, if it's been down. There won't be any updates.

Maybe I'll do some more work instead...

CNN.com just posted an article about it.

love these quotes:

Several sarcastic Twitter users bemoaned the fate of the undernourished virtual plants and animals of FarmVille, while others (presumably with a degree of self-awareness) remarked on the ramifications of the outage.

"OPB BREAKING NEWS: Facebook is down," read a message on Oregon Public Broadcasting's feed. "Worker productivity rises. U.S. climbs out of recession."

It's back up for me, and not a moment too soon... I had a banal thought and nowhere to post it!

"Worker productivity rises. U.S. climbs out of recession."

...sad to say, there's a kernel of truth in that! (The productivity part)

LOL

...in the meantime, there are some excellent threads over on the Main Board today.

One in particular has been fascinating reading!

(No productivity for me! I'm determined to waste time!)

Was that sarcasm, Addy? I can't tell but I didn't see any good threads over there today?

Well except for the favorite Edna thread (that is sarcasm, btw).

Well, the thread about what Broadway shows are looked down on has actually captured my attention... Fact. Opinion. And everything in between. I've enjoyed reading it.

For real.

(But, the rest was sarcastic - because it's often hard to find anything of interest over there!)

I sadly agree, Addy.
