New Delhi, June 1 (PTI) Facebook users today faced
trouble accessing the popular social networking site, while
the company said later that the problem has been fixed.
"Earlier today, some users briefly experienced issues
loading the site. The issues have since been resolved and
everyone should now have access to Facebook. We apologise for
any inconvenience," Facebook said in a statement.
Although it could not be ascertained as to how long did
the outage last, blogs suggested that the website was not
accessible for about an hour.
The outage came against the backdrop of Facebook
grappling with the fallout of its IPO. The company's shares,
which got listed on Nasdaq on May 18, have plummeted over 20
per cent from its IPO price of USD 38. The stock closed at USD
29.60 apiece on May 31.
Facebook claims to have over 25 million users in India.
It had 901 million monthly active users worldwide at the
end of March 2012, according to the Wesbite.
