Two days back, Facebook bought the messaging service WhatsApp at an initial price of $19 billion and now today, it is down from almost half an hour. Many users including me are not able to send messages and the company has confirmed that the service is facing some issues and they are working on to fix it. Although there is no word how long it would take to restore the services.
