[outages] OT: Weird problem with Firefox & G+

Pardon the off-topic post, but...

For some bizarre reason, Google+ started giving me an "invisible" page 
after logging in this morning. It starts off fine, but then after 
pulling content from ssl.gstatic.com and *.googleusercontent.com, etc., 
it then goes "invisible".

This is with Firefox 24.0 -- I have, one by one, unloaded and restarted 
Firefox with various plugins disabled (e.g. NoScript, HTTPS Everywhere, 
etc.) and the problem persists.

There *is* content there, it is just "invisible" (e.g. body {
           visibility: hidden;
         })

...and seems to work fine in IE (not my browser of choice).

Just curious if anyone else running Firefox 24.0 has run into this 
problem today on G+, or if Google made some sort of "enhancement" which 
manifests itself this way.

All other Google property pages work fine, just G+ has exhibited this 
behavior today.

Thanks,

- ferg
