Update: Facebook has informed us that they're looking into the problem and will provide more details soon.

A quick check of Twitter confirms it: Facebook is down. The world's largest social network is having some type of uptime issue that is affecting at least a large swath of users.
According to our tests (which involved clicking "refresh" many times), Facebook.com will sometimes load after multiple attempts, but there's clearly a problem. So it's not just you: Facebook is indeed down.
We've put in a request for more information with Facebook to see what's wrong. We'll keep you updated as we learn more.
