Facebook runs CentOS!

In case you didn’t know, Facebook, the popular social networking site, runs on CentOS servers. I found this out after trying to add the Extended Info Application, and got this screen which I should probably not be seeing.

CentOS stands for Community Enterprise OS and is basically a community version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

    More than likely that page was being generated from the servers of the application creator, not from one facebook machines.

    If you have the unedited screenshot you can see who owns that IP block and verify this.
