Get off my lawn!

I will say it again, I use Facebook to keep up with actual friends and relatives. I just stop following anyone posting political crap.
As a non IT pro, it is just astonishing that a company as big as Facebook can have their site go down. It did not bother me one iota that is was down. Now when Pelican goes down, that is important!

Burn the fire.

Good. Facebook and Twitter are pretty much state run media now. They put more effort into controlling what information can be shared than their IT.
