Has anyone else been having weird problems with Facebook over the last few weeks? I keep getting messages like two or three days after they've been sent, and that little red bubble that shows when I get notifications hasn't been showing up either. Also, my girlfriend called me and asked me to get on Facebook chat... we were both on and yet it said neither of us were. Not a big deal, but is anyone else having problems like this... or is it just me?
Nope My update thing became a little slow when they changed facebook, but the thing that tells you someone has comments or wrote on my wall pops up immediately. The red bubble take a while.
http://mashable.com/2009/06/01/facebook-slow/ Facebook: Slow and Unresponsive, Again? We’ve heard numerous reports that Facebook (Facebook reviews) has been running very slow, and at times has become completely unresponsive, over the last couple of days. Additionally, it’s been that way for most of us at Mashable (Mashable reviews), too; and judging by the conversations on Twitter, many users are affected. Facebook has sometimes had rough patches when it comes to performance, but this last one seems to be lasting longer than usual. According to anecdotal evidence, users with lots of friends and applications seem to be affected the most, many of them completely unable to access their profiles (some claim it’s been that way for over a week). Personally, I have under 100 friends and I have been able to open my profile, but it has been painfully slow at times.
I think its because they keep messing with the format, but yea I've had a few problems from time to time.
So how do you close your facebook account? I mean is simple to just close it but I mean its like without facebook u miss out alot of things thats going on in your social life like a party with your classmates or workmates an event etc.. And then there is all those contacts u have that u want to stay in touch with but dont want to add on msn or something like that. I hope u understand my concern I've had it with Facebook but I still have a tough time to just quit it and end my account! Suggestions??
I don't really use Facebook (as Costanza said, you don't want your worlds colliding... ), but a friend of mine has been complaining she sometimes never gets updates via email for a day or two, then she logs into facebook and there are a a lot of new entries people have posted. She said this started happening after some change that took place in the Facebook GUI/interface(?). I dunno.
Well, she's been using it for months with no problems... it just started happening a couple of months ago. She never gets emails for some updates - others she does.
I go on facebook once a day for probably 5 minutes a day, and yeah... it's been way slooooooow for over a week. Not sure why, but I've definitely noticed it.
I love how some people in this thread complaining about it have to add the disclaimer of "well, I'm only on there 5 minutes a day, but....." or "I'm not on there, but someone I know is and they say....." Come on, just admit you're on there all day long.
