But what gets placed into the (Firefox) URL bar is:

http://www.facebook.com/%E2%80%A8

I'm wondering how many people would look at that and think it was fishy.

Same with Safari. Only Chrome seems to display his way, but even then it's just a 404 page. I still get the toolbar and notifications up top, so it's clear that Facebook is not down.
