Facebook was down for 40 minutes all over the world. Naturally, order was thrown into chaos and everyone saw this as a sign of end of days. While panic ensued and made people face the withdrawal stages that addicts do, it was still a good time sink to go on twitter and see how they were responding to the outage.
We hope you enjoy these as much as we did in gathering them. This goes to show that Facebook is indeed a powerful resource now, I never noticed such a reaction whenever Orkut or MySpace were down.
