Something Went Wrong Facebook

Facebook went offline for lots of customers on Thursday, with the world's most popular social media network telling users that "something failed".

When going to Facebook.com, as opposed to seeing the normal homescreen or news feed, customers were greeted with an empty screen and a short error message.

" Sorry, something failed. We're working on it and we'll get it repaired as soon as we can," the message reviews.

The outage started at around 5.30 pm BST however, for most customers, appeared to have actually been settled around 20 mins after.

Down Detector, which collects records of popular solutions being down, displayed failures in the UK, Europe and also the United States.

Certainly, people took to Twitter to have their say.

The web site decreased on Thursday mid-day as well as brief-ly appeared to work again for some customers.

A spokesman for Facebook has actually stated they are looking into what occurred.

At The Same Time, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook chief executive, went to an event placed on by Oculus, the virtual reality headset company Facebook possesses.
