Facebook Craze

How to play the ‘Why, wassup?’ game on your facebook status.

Then, for anyone who likes your status, you have to give them a Why, Wassup? on their wall. A Why, Wassup? post is when you talk about the person as if you were answering the question ‘Do you know that person?’.

Mel? The girl in my class? The one with nice hair? The girl who lives near to me? The one who is a cheerleader?

Then, at the end of it you write:

Yeah, I know her… why, wassup?

Today, Facebook has been unstable for many users. In the last 15 minutes or so, Facebook seems to be completely inaccessible (down).

Facebook has given the following statement:

“We are experiencing site issues that are affecting some people. As a result, the site may be slow or time out for some users. We are working to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.”

Facebook downtime is rare but even the world’s largest social network occasionally has stability issues. It’s a big deal: with 500 million active users, complaints about facebook downtime mount up pretty quickly.
