YouTube Down, Facebook Wonky

YouTube is having a less-than-reliable Saturday as unscheduled downtime is preventing video pages from loading. YouTube embeds around the web are also broken. While the YouTube front page continues to load, clicking any of these video thumbnails will deliver a downtime message.

YouTube () acknowledged the problems on its Twitter () feed earlier today, Tweeting: “We’re aware some users are having trouble accessing YouTube videos. We’re looking into it, and we’ll update everyone soon.”

In the meantime, you could head over to Facebook () … except that too appears to be experiencing issues today: users report their timelines are not updating.

Are you having issues with YouTube and Facebook today? Let us know in the comments.
