Can't get to the website directly, but the Tweetdeck client is working. MeFi.

Is Facebook being slammed by overflow? Because FB is unresponsive this morning as well.

When I first read that, I thought you meant MS-DOS. That would've been funny.

Facebook, too, I'm told.

My Twitter page won't load but no problem with Facebook.

no problem with either at the moment; just loaded the twitter and facebook pages and nothing seemed amiss.

Facebook itself was OK for me, but when I tried to access my Inbox it took forever and the page I got was inoperable.

I love headlines like this that would have made no sense 20 years ago.

Suggests to me a slightly fey villain being taken down by Spiderman.
