So facebook went down for a few minutes. Did you notice? Did you care? Seems a lot of people were mentioning on Twitter - the one social network that used to go down the most.

Yep. Wifey was complaining and somehow it was my fault because I must have done something to the computer....sigh. At least I can now say I fixed it for her. Lol.

When newspaper headlines are "Facebook is down" and "Video went viral".

Sad, sad world.
