As of 2 mins ago Facebook is not available on my Chrome Browser? Anyone else in Turkey found the same?

Mine is working extremely slow. Wouldn't be surprised if it stops working soon. The joys of censorship...

Downloaded Hotspot Shield.com and now back in business.  Always something to keep you interested here in Turkey

It works best in Internet explorer.  Only downside is you keep getting adverts popping up.  Only way to get rid of them is to pay for the full version.  I will put up with it for the moment.

I heard that the events in Instanbul yesterday, were trending 2nd on Twitter.  People around the world are shocked by the brutality of the police. I'm shocked and I live 12hrs away.  This is a new country that is being divided by him and the man that bought Turkey into 20th century...........It aint gonna go away, just yet.
