#Facebookdown trends on Twitter. Social networking site Facebook crashed on Thursday afternoon and it was down for close to half an hour. Users who attempted to refresh their page saw a message that read "Sorry, something went wrong.' The site said it was working to get the issue fixed "as soon as we can.'  However, it was up and running soon after.

Here are some of the tweets ...
