The reason for the outage was an internal configuration error.

"And nothing of value was lost."
I never realised how much I relied of Facebook for communication until now.
Wow. I would like to get a dump of IP's used to down facebook. It should be a lot
Really... MySpace?
So it has nothing to do with the snow storm in New York?
Negative
"Dead here at AS11404 from all locations where we PNI or public peer...
must be bad over there, v4 dies at their edge, v6 makes it in but no page loads."
From someone in a news group I'm in. Hopefully it's not a huge issue to fix.
They would be haemorrhaging money right now.
I'm sorry kiddies, but to be honest, nobody loses except you xD
WoW! Now I can do my work till Facebook is down!
And all the ISPs that will be getting calls from people that are angry they can't access these services. Oh, and not to mention the people that make a living of these services and the businesses that advertise on them.
Wait.. People make a living off Facebook?
Shocked too. Whos the fuck uses myspace?
Wasn't MySpace already taken offline?
Yes. It has huge money making potential.
More sites coming down soon too apparently.

I think that Twitter will stay up...
Well, if google stops working for many people this would mean "the internet is totally down".
Oh Facebook back Online!
I did not even notice it go offline
I bet attack just stopped because others got online also at the same time
:O plz use @mojeda's script
That's so not fair man, I'm not a kiddie, I rely on FB to contact and see what my family is doing in the UK
I didn't say just kiddies
I'm just implying that the kiddies who enjoy DDoS-ing are pretty much just cutting contact with their friends. Oh wait..
They're online now, FB and other sites.
Fb is up for me?

Everything is back online now.
People can go back to posting pictures of themselves. Hurray, the world is safe!
I think not giving a fuck about these 'Hacker Groups' who are actually just a bunch of kids who learnt this thing called 'DDOS' should be enough to reduce their activities. BBC posted about them, isn't that what exactly they do all these things for?
Death to social media.
