Don't worry: Facebook isn't shutting down

This is just a quick note to say that, despite any rumors you may have heard over the weekend, Facebook is not shutting down. Mashable even went as far as to get a confirmation from Facebook's Director of Corporate Communications!

It's a little bit worrying just how seriously the hoax was taken. Remember, though, that the average Facebook pleb won't know anything about its recent $50 billion valuation, or that it now has over 600 million users. It's perfectly natural that we hysterically defend the most important thing in our life, too!

Maybe, though, we're finally seeing the modern-day social media equivalent of Bill Gates' email tracker...
