Bulgaria and the entire Old Continent woke up Wednesday without Facebook.

Between 9 and 10 am the 2 million Bulgarian Facebook users had no access to the Facebook site, even though some reported having such access, and others – that there were frequent interruptions.

Users across Europe, from Germany, the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, Sweden, Greece, Turkey and Russia, among others, have alarmed about not having Facebook. In addition, similar information is coming from the South African Republic and the United Arab Emirates. Messages are also pouring on Twitter.

The traffic monitoring site downrightnow.com shows a huge decrease of Facebook visits in the last several hours. The reason for the crash is believed to be a problem in two of the social network servers.

Those who were able to connect did so by the use of mobile devices.

Facebook servers were considered to be among the most secure in the world. In 2010, people across the globe found a way to connect by using its chat, after Skype disappeared for almost 24 hours.
