When I click on the link in bookmarks for Facebook a page appears with a lot of gobbletee gouch and strange letters

Why is this?

    Hi,
    Are you able to access facebook in the normal way (typing address in browser) ?


    It sounds like the bookmark is corrupt/not pointing to correct page .


    If you tell me what browser you are using (ie, chrome etc) then I can help you re-create the bookmark.

    ^^ Ahh - It seems in that case and from what JJ Egan says above that it may be a facebook issue.


    If that is the case, I cant see it being down for long ..
