Our thoughts are with the people of Paris after the devastating terrorist attacks in France's capital on Friday. While Twitter is rife with varying accounts, The Associated Press reports [1] that at least 129 are dead and 80 are critically injured and the majority of those deaths were hostages inside a concert hall [2].
In light of the attacks, Facebook added a feature [3] that lets you check in and say you are safe if you live in Paris and President Obama made brief remarks [4] about the situation.
Here are the photos and news coming out of social media. Warning: some of these images are graphic.
