Facebook broke the Internet
Reminds me of this classic scene on The IT Crowd - Uh hh someone typed 'google' in to google, the internet is broken!
So its funny where we have put our trust and made our selves so vulnerable, the well liked Facebook like button caused untold issues and pretty much brought down the entire internet.
There was a bug in the button that redirected any page that had the button on it to Facebook and then display an error page. This has to make you think how much of a risk is this to your site? Loading external Javascript into your site is always a risk, however have we all thought it through?
This could create some interesting discussion over the coming weeks, and could change the way web professionals do things.
