For those who think its due to Facebook:
WhatsApp Is Down, Facebook’s New Acquisition Confirms Server Issues
In reality, it’s more likely that its $19 billion acquisition by Facebook announced Wednesday led to a surge of signups and usage that has overloaded its servers. We’ve contacted Facebook and are awaiting a response.
When users (including me) try to send messages or check their existing chat conversations, WhatsApp gets stuck, showing an endless loading asterisk and the alert “Connecting…”
The “WhatsDown” reports started flooding in around 11am PST, but there were some troubles last night as well. We’ve received tips from frustrated users in the US, India, Israel, and many places around the world. The outage could stoke fears that Facebook will screw up WhatsApp if the acquisition gets regulatory approval.

Facebook doesn't own them yet, so this whole outage is due to technical issues with WhatsApp servers and a possible surge in use, I'm sure when Facebook do own them we won't have this as they will move them to their more robust servers.

LMAO, dude that link was for an electric chair haunting some official LMAO!!!
On a serious note I did expect an outage due to ownership of moving servers over.
