Facebook went down for an hour and Twitter melted

What an age we live in.

Facebook went down for over an hour today and, with nothing to do, Twitter was flooded with tweets with obligatory #Facebookdown trending across Ireland.

Here’s what people had to say about life without Facebook

Facebook is down! How am I going to catch up on where people i know are on holiday, what they are eating or what their kids are doing!? #Fb
