I use twitter, and people use fb.me links on twitter, which didn't work.

Heh, finally someone must have noticed, and instead of fixing it for
IPv6, they've just removed the AAAA record:

li16x-xxx:~# telnet fb.me http
Trying 173.252.110.27...
Connected to fb.me.
Escape character is '^]'.
^CConnection closed by foreign host.
li16x-xxx:~# telnet -6 fb.me http
telnet: could not resolve fb.me/http: Name or service not known

But it's still amusing that it's been down for so long.  I wonder how
many hours (or possibly even days) it's been down for. :-)
