Something Went Wrong Facebook | 2019

Facebook went offline for many users on Thursday, with the world's most prominent social media network telling users that "something went wrong".

When visiting Facebook.com, instead of seeing the regular homescreen or information feed, customers were welcomed with a blank display and a short error message.

" Sorry, something went wrong. We're dealing with it and we'll get it taken care of as quickly as we can," the message checks out.

The blackout began at around 5.30 pm BST yet, for most customers, showed up to have actually been fixed around 20 mins after.

Down Detector, which collects records of popular services being down, displayed failures in the UK, Europe as well as the United States.

Naturally, people took to Twitter to have their say.

The internet site decreased on Thursday afternoon as well as brief-ly appeared to work again for some individuals.

A representative for Facebook has said they are considering what took place.

Meanwhile, Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook chief executive, went to an event put on by Oculus, the virtual reality headset firm Facebook possesses.
