Facebook is napping

It looks like Facebook is taking a nap:



Does this mean that at this moment, and perhaps for some hours, that nobody has been logged on to Facebook? It's not even 7 AM EST as I write this, so the outage was, in my way of thinking, overnight. If Facebook had been unavailable during the work day, then the nations' economists would have probably seen a noticeable jump in America's productivity.
