in the butt for anyone else today?

Really slow loading and sometimes just blank pages. Frustrating.

1. Yup.

2. What I find works for me when it does that

Just go back to the root of the site at http://www.facebook.com.

Because of the way the site works, it stores a lot of your browsing history in its URLs. Sometimes, when that gets clogged it seems to slow things down. I just go back to the base URL and start over, and that seems to help.

4. Just as I read this thread...

I was trying to load facebook and it gave me the "Your account is temporarily unavailable due to site maintenance. It should be available again within a few hours. We apologize for the inconvenience" error message, it's been doing that quite a bit in the last day or two


it's friggen annoying!
