    What are your ISPs? Could very likely be an uplink error at Facebook's side. I read that AT&T+Layer3 was having issues.

    @edythemighty That site sucks.

    @jacobchristensen Do a traceroute and see who Facebook.com (plus that cdn-domain of theirs) are peering with towards your provider's international peering partner) @carlplage you do the same, and you'll be able to get a better picture of the "ups and downs" of basically any site.

    @hypocrisy: I think that one is a bit beyond me. But the ISP is Kommunicera in Umeå.

    @carlplage It surely matters. It depends on who your ISP is peering for you to reach the pages you want to visit.

    Speaking about the UK, I've been reading about some quite alarming facts of the connecting hub (POP) over there. Basically, there is only ONE central connecting point in the entire UK, and when this connecting point is having problems (as it has been having these later times), then ALL connecting ISPs are affected. brr

    @hypocrisy But I cannot do anything about it. I cannot change my broadband provider because there is only 1 to choose from here.

    @jacobchristensen What's your operating system? If windows, just go to start button -> run - > cmd -> and the cmd-box you type in tracert www.facebook.com.

    Voila :)

    It may because I've only been vaguely curious raher than a user, but facebook doesn't seem to be a great method of communication and seems to be a really good way of peddling advertising and tracking applications to the masses based on novelty applications often disguising advertising and tracking

    Facebook wasn't always like that. Before that, it was tracking your friend's keg stands :)

    If www.facebook.com has been taken out, then wouldn't all facebook requests not redirect to http://facebook.com? arrr....me body is tired, and my mind can't keep up
