The F Word

I saw The Social Network tonight, so naturally, I wanted to get on to Facebook to say that it's a great movie, but it made me want to friend Mark Zuckerberg just so I could unfriend him.
But Facebook is offline! This is incredibly ironic as I just heard the screen version of Zuckerberg say that, unlike other social network sites: "Facebook does not go offline EVER. We go offline for one minute, we're DEAD." (I'm sure that's pretty close to the actual dialogue; I don't take notes while watching a show using an Aaron Sorkin script: I can't write that fast!)
With yet more irony, I'm posting this on LiveJournal, which is shown as a Facebook forerunner -- and therefore passe. (The movie shows Zuckerberg posting to LJ as he hacks out the first version of what would become Facebook. Heh.)
Anyway, Facebook has had its worst outages since The Social Network came out. Is someone trying to stop us from talking about it? ;)
