While outages have become an expected part of the Twitter experience, social network Facebook has a pretty good reputation for staying available. Beginning on Wednesday evening, and carrying over into Thursday, the site experienced rare outages that affected not only the main Facebook.com site, but also the elements of Facebook that are shared among other sites, such as the ubiquitous "Like" button.
In addition to API latency issues mentioned on the Facebook Platform site, a statement from Facebook on Thursday said:
There is currently no ETA for the restoration of Facebook's services.
