Facebook appears to be down

As of the time of this post, it seems that Facebook is currently down (shocker!). Here's what their homepage looks like:

Update 4:24 AM: Seems this is one of the most signifigant outages that Facebook has suffered in a while. The site has now been down for more than a few minutes, and their smartphone apps are affected too.

Update 4:25 AM: Seems that Facebook is back online, with its normal homepage returning. I'll update later today with perhaps more information on the outage (It's very early right now where I live)

Here's a funny tweet I found, relating to the outage. I think it's quite funny :)
