Facebook Scheduled To Shut Down/Close From 1st January 2015

By KWS Adams Dec 17, 2014

Its been claimed that the worlds Giant and top social networking site Facebook is scheduled to shut down from January 1st 2015 following a planned maintenance which will see major fixes happening as already planned.

The site is expected to remain closed for a full week ie till the 8th January when its believed that maintenance work will be done. According to this Article, its claimed that Mark Zuckerberg who is the CEO and founder of Facebook announced that the full week closure is purposely for a standard
maintenance.

The social site is estimated to be back for public access on January 8, 2015.

What does it mean?

For the million users, its like none of them will be able to access the site regardless of the device one will be using not until the maintenance work has been done..

More about this will continue as soon as I get to know more..

Update: According to the different sources, Facebook closure news looks not to be True. Its claimed that the linked main article above is just another hoax and you shouldn’t get worried about your social site remaining off for a full week.

The same claims have been circulating so many years back well as none of the dates mentioned has ever seen Facebook closing down. A phone number which the article provided looks to belong to some Church other than Facebook.com itself.

  12. That’s not bad for as long as its to bring the best out of our Facebook site. I see, may be that will help solve the many crashes and much more we suffer some of us.

      1. That would be cool though if it does turn out better than it has in the past. I have heard a lot of people complaining about the changes, including people on my list.

  13. Is facebook clsoing for computers or for mobile devices as well? If they close all, then we are sad about the fixing.

    1. No, Facebook is not gonna remain closed forever or going out of business. Its all about working on something which will see the services improved. The site will be back as I shared above – looks you missed a line.
